[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

Merging this and https://issues.guix.gnu.org/38459 onto master allows
to successfully build bootstrap-tarballs for powerpc64le-linux-gnu
using the command:

$ guix build --target=powerpc64le-linux-gnu bootstrap-tarballs

This patch can be removed when libffi releases the next version
(probably 3.4).

Thank you

I fixed the conflicts and applied to ‘core-updates’.  POWER9 support is
coming!  :-)

Thanks,
