 Replying to [comment:16 rmottola]:
 > if you update the patch in the portfile (the old one is broken anyway)

 To make it clear: `patch-libffi-intel-leopard-sysv.diff` is superfluous
 since its contents has been incorporated into the sources. `patch-libffi-
 tests-gcc42.diff` can easily be substituted with `patch-libffi-tests-
 GCC42.diff` which is kind of an update. You can change `Portfile` easily
 yourself: `sudo port edit libffi`. I do not know (or remember) how to set
 the editor in which it will open. Maybe `sudo env EDITOR=<your choice>
 port edit libffi` on the command line will do exactly what you want.
