Dear Mr. Green :

   My box is fuloong 6004, loongson2f cpu, mips64, little endian, more info see
http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Loongson#Loongson_2F

Here I want install autogen, then needs guile dependency, guile needs libffi, when I install libffi, afterthat I install guile, problem is  that undefined ffi_type_pointer, I try to several methods, it still can be ok. I checked the ffi.h is extern, shall I defined the use #define for  each one ?

Thanks

This just looks like libffi isn't being linked to guile at all.  Can you 
verify that libffi was actually built and installed in the right place?  
Next, I would see what "CCLD guile" is really doing.  I'm not sure how 
guile is built these days, but maybe you just have to add V=1 to the 
"make" command line.

Can you please run "make V=1" so that we can see the complete command
used in the failing link (CCLD guile) command?  As Anthony Green said,
it appears that libffi was not linked.

I can think of a few possible reasons:

* Did you forget to run "ldconfig" after installing libffi?
* Was libffi present when you last ran Guile's configure?
* Is there a problem with pkg-config on your system?
  (What is the output of "pkg-config --libs libffi"?)

    Thanks,
      Mark

Indeed.  Libffi certainly builds on mipsel machines, as does Guile, so I
suspect this is an error configuring Guile.  Perhaps you needed to set
PKG_CONFIG_PATH, ɺɺ?
