[Gsll-devel] Problem with building gsll

[Liam Healy]

Jorge,

Do a fresh update of CFFI and try again.
Though I said I added the cffi-grovel::*cc-flags* form
(and I had) I was later corrected by one of the CFFI
gurus who pointed out the more acceptable way,
by using the cc-flags form, so I made the change.
That feature was introduced in
a relatively recent version of CFFI and evidently yours
is older.
