It should be in "src/worksp/libffi", but I see that "src/worksp/libffi"
is missing in the Windows source distribution. We'll fix the
distribution specs.
Meanwhile, you can get the "libffi" directory from here:

For that matter, unless you specifically need version 5.1.3, I
recommend just building the latest from the git repo.
