obtained gcc-4.6.4.tar.bz2 from upstream website;upstream

verified gcc-4.6.4.tar.bz2.sig;
imported gcc-4.6.4 source tree from verified upstream tarball.

downloading a git-generated archive based on the 'upstream' tag
should provide you with a source tree that is binary identical
to the one extracted from the above tarball.

if you have obtained the source via the command 'git clone',
however, do note that line-endings of files in your working
directory might differ from line-endings of the respective
files in the upstream repository.

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm ffi_call
+function provides a simple mechanism for invoking a function without
+requiring knowledge of the function's interface at compile time.
+.Fa fn
+is called with the values retrieved from the pointers in the
+.Fa avalue
+array. The return value from
+.Fa fn
+is placed in storage pointed to by
+.Fa rvalue .
+.Fa cif
+contains information describing the data types, sizes and alignments of the
+arguments to and return value from
+.Fa fn ,
+and must be initialized with
+.Nm ffi_prep_cif
+before it is used with
+.Nm ffi_call .
+.Pp
+.Fa rvalue
+must point to storage that is sizeof(ffi_arg) or larger for non-floating point
+types. For smaller-sized return value types, the
+.Nm ffi_arg
+or
+.Nm ffi_sarg
+integral type must be used to hold
+the return value.
