I can't reproduce this. My ghc-pkg can find libffi:

$ ldd "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/bin/ghc-pkg" | grep ffi
        libffi.so.6 => /home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/bin/../rts-1.0/libffi.so.6 (0x00007fd2faf6e000)

The library exists:

$ ls -l "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/bin/../rts-1.0/libffi.so.6"
-rw-r--r-- 1 ian ian 105366 Mar 19 18:15 /home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/bin/../rts-1.0/libffi.so.6

It was installed earlier, by:

for i in  rts/dist/build/libHSrts.a [...] rts/dist/build/libffi.so rts/dist/build/libffi.so.6 rts/dist/build/libffi.so.6.0.0 ; do case $i in *.a) /usr/bin/install -c -m 644  $i  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0"; true  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0"/`basename $i` ;; *.dll) /usr/bin/install -c -m 755  $i  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0" ; :  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0"/`basename $i` ;; *.so) /usr/bin/install -c -m 755  $i  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0" ;; *.dylib) /usr/bin/install -c -m 755  $i  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0";; *) /usr/bin/install -c -m 644  $i  "/home/ian/ghc/git/ghc/bindisttest/install   dir/lib/ghc-7.7.20130319/rts-1.0"; esac; done

Which bit is it that goes wrong for you?
