Created attachment 269635 [details, diff]
patch for libffi-3.0.10_rc8.ebuild

When I confirmed Makefile, it is used if HOST is defined. 
Because Gentoo/*BSD uses special CHOST, it is necessary to define HOST.

Applied patch for BSD.

BTW, I asked upstream about the m4 macro used in this package (and causing this bug).

I think it would be better to have this patch for all archs ...
