-      <para>Similar to GMP, libffi builds with optimizations specific
-      to the proccesor in use. If building for another system, export
-      CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to specify a generic build for your architecture.
-      If this is not done, all applications that link to libffi will trigger
-      Illegal Operation Errors.</para>
