[racket-dev] racket segfaults during raco setup on OpenBSD

I think this is a libffi problem, and I guess there's a patch that we
still need to add to the Racket copy of libffi (although I sync'd with
the latest libffi sson after the last time this was discussed).

While we sort that out, you should be able to install the
"devel/libffi" package, then re-running `configure` should pick up the
installed libffi instead of building, and then things should work.

but skip to the end.
