All the 1.x versions of ffi only work with ruby 1.9, which we still have masked, so bumping ffi is currently not a priority.

Weird as the test suite of a project I am working on still passes properly with 1.8.7. Maybe the gem is just pulled in but never used for anything.

It turns out that ruby 1.8.x support was re-instated with ffi 1.0.6. I've just added ffi 1.0.7 to CVS.
