Comment:

 r138532. Turns out the compiler.cpath and compiler.library_path settings
 are necessary because the wouldn't find the `_iconv` symbol without them
 in the first bootstrapping phase. The comment was wrong, though; these
 settings are only needed as a fallback. I fixed the comment and switched
 to our copy of libffi.

 Thanks.
