Hello,

Trying to build an MIPS system on debian/sid/aarch64 machine fails to build python2 for the host. It seems the current used python has a bundled version of libffi, which doesn't yet support aarch64.

A temporary solution is to hardcopy libffi-3.3-rc0 into python source tree:

output/build/host-python-2.7.16/Modules/_ctypes/libffi

Alse luajit for the target fails to build for MIPS -msoft-float. This seems to be fixed in 2.1.0-beta3.
