Oh, I understand now. You want the FFI to be disabled, but Racket
doesn't build without the FFI enabled.
I'll look into that, but Racket is evolving toward a point where the
FFI will be required always. We may be there already (in which case
`--disable-foreign' should be removed). As of v5.1, the FFI is required
for any drawing or GUI program (including DrRacket).
