 Attached patch:

 {{{
 Mon Mar 23 08:08:32 CET 2009  Lennart Kolmodin <kolmodin at gentoo.org>
   * Replace libffi 3.0.4 with libffi 3.0.8
   Use the latest version of libffi, which compiles with a non-executable
   stack. libffi 3.0.4 was the single piece of ghc using the executable
 stack,
   forcing the whole toolchain to use executable stacks (including all
   executables it compiled).
