void-packages/srcpkgs/libffi/template
Juan RP 85cc462e1d Major infrastructure changes, part 2.
* Moved helpers, common and triggers dirs into xbps-src, where
  they belong.
* Renamed the templates dir to srcpkgs, it was so redundant before.
* Make it possible to add subpkgs with no restriction in names, for
  example udev now has a subpkgs called "libgudev". Previously
  subpkgs were named "${sourcepkg}-${pkgname}".
* xbps-src: changed to look for template files in current directory.
  That means that most arguments from the targets have been removed.
* xbps-src: added a reinstall target, to remove + install.
* xbps-src: do not overwrite binpkgs by default, skip them.

And more that I forgot because it's a mega-commit that I've been
working for some days already...

long_desc="
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.
Some programs may not know at the time of compilation what arguments
are to be passed to a function. For instance, an interpreter may be
told at run-time about the number and types of arguments used to call
a given function. Libffi can be used in such programs to provide a
bridge from the interpreter program to compiled code.
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."
