We've recently added pkg-config-cflags to cffi-grovel and cffi-libffi
was its first user. If you use CFFI from Git, which uses this scheme,
does it fix this particular problem? pkg-config needs to be in your
path, of course, but if it isn't that's probably more obvious to fix.

[For the record, Mirko then replied he'd like to try this out via
Quicklisp rather than pulling CFFI from Git. The next CFFI release
will most likely be included in the June distribution.]

Cheers,
