>Description:
When executing the testsuite in devel/libffi, NetBSD 5.1.1 for m68k fails some 
of the tests with the following output.

You need dejagnu and expect in the same toplevel tree as libffi-3.0.9, then run 
"make check" in the testsuite directory of libffi.

I suspect it's the same for other m68k targets.

make  check-DEJAGNU
srcdir=`CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && pwd`; export srcdir;  EXPECT=`if 
[ -f ../../expect/expect ] ; then  echo ../../expect/expect ;  else echo expect 
; fi`; export EXPECT;  runtest=`if [ -f ../../dejagnu/runtest ] ; then  echo 
../../dejagnu/runtest ;  else echo runtest; fi`;  if /bin/sh -c "$runtest 
--version" > /dev/null 2>&1; then  exit_status=0; l='libffi'; for tool in $l; 
do  if $runtest  --tool $tool --srcdir $srcdir ;  then :; else exit_status=1; 
fi;  done;  else echo "WARNING: could not find \`runtest'" 1>&2; :; fi;  exit 
$exit_status

Then it goes on to do the same tests with -O2 and other GCC options, with 
similar failures.
>How-To-Repeat:
Go to pkgsrc/devel/libffi and type "make".

Then go to pkgsrc/devel/dejagnu and type "make".

Go to devel/libffi/work and "ln -s ../../dejagnu/work/dejagnu-1.4.4 ." 

Then "mkdir expect" and "cp /usr/pkg/bin/expect expect"

Now change directory to "pkgsrc/devel/libffi/work/libffi-3.0.9/testsuite" and 
run "make check"

Expect the failures above.
