-----------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Hello,
 I am having trouble building a universal variant of libffi (v3.2.1) on a
 Mavericks (10.9) machine (port version 2.3.2). The problems have to do
 with downloading the patch file and (even if I download the patchfile 'out
 of band') getting the checksums to work.

 I am building "+universal" because packages that depend on libffi need it
 and were built with that variant, too.

 OK, so it cannot find the patch. But if I download the patchfile from
       https://trac.macports.org/raw-attachment/ticket/45904/PR-44170.patch
 and the main tar file and place them in
       /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/libffi
 then it fails with

 {{{

 }}}

 The Portfile has no checksum for the patch specified at all. There is one
 for the libffi tar file, and the checksum of the actual file matches
 properly.

 Advice, please?

 Thanks very much in advance.
