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
