-The libffi library provides a portable, high level programming 
-interface to various calling conventions. This allows a 
-programmer to call any function specified by a call interface 
-description at run-time.
-
-FFI stands for Foreign Function Interface. A foreign function 
-interface is the popular name for the interface that allows code 
-written in one language to call code written in another language. 
-The libffi library really only provides the lowest, machine dependent 
-layer of a fully featured foreign function interface. A layer must 
-exist above libffi that handles type conversions for values passed 
-between the two languages.

-# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
-# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
-# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
-# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
-# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
-# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
