Solution
Replace libffi dependency with version specifying system version of libffi.
Like so:
[dependencies.libffi]
version = "2.3.0"
features = ["system"]The downside is the user would need libffi installed on their system, but at least this issue would go.
Alternate solution
clearly this does not work:
tov/libffi-rs@ce05302
So we could get upstream to fix it on their bundled version of libffi.
