libffcall_DEPENDENCIES.txt

GNU libffcall is a library which can be used to build foreign function call interfaces in embedded interpreters.

The attached DEPENDENCIES list was extracted from the 2.0 tar ball.


from #638942:
2) clisp has a couple of dependencies, mostly libsigsegv and libffcall. Find
   the current DEPENDENCIES file attached (it was not present in the 2.49.60
   prerelease). libffcall was essential for some version of xindy at least.
