Well, there have been some bugfixes in gcc/libffi upstream, so as long as
anyone out there might conceivably have some homebrew app that they've linked
against libffi4, I'd like to do them the favour of giving them a final updated
version to live with until they get round to rebuilding against libffi6. It's
no skin off my (or anyone else's) nose as far as I can see.
