With --without-dynamic-ffi instead of --with-dynamic-ffi, configure does not fail on HPPA.

wrong bug and drscheme does NOT use gcj

Does clisp-2.48 still have the same failure?

I've tried out the workarounds that ALPHA and IA64 deploy in the ebuild to get it to build, but they are not sufficient for HPPA it seems. Having `append-flags -DNO_ASM' does not help either.
According to Bruno Haible's email sent to the Common Lisp Project email on Nov 2017, this has been fixed in libffcall-2.0 (dev-libs/ffcall-2.0).
