Package: ruby-ffi
Version: 1.0.9debian-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

currently ruby-ffi fails to build on kFreeBSD and Hurd.
The problem is that the C ffi extension does not have a way to detect
the endianness on these OSes.
Given they both use GNU libc, we can use the same way (<endian.h>)
used for the Linux case already; this is what the attached patch does.

Thanks,
