Why not?  Not because of libffi, I think.  libffi compiles out of the
box with MinGW; I did that when I needed to build Guile on Windows,
and my notes from that time indicate that the only libffi issue was a
rather minor problem with "make install".  And there are precompiled
Windows binaries available on the net.
