        <pre>I do have libffi-dev package installed, but the header is in
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/ffi.h. Notably, ccmake indicates LLVM_ENABLE_FFI
is OFF, yet I still get this error.

Steps:

$ git clone <a href="https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git">https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git</a>
$ cd llvm-project/
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja ../llvm

-- Build files have been written to: /home/nicholas/llvm-project/build

If I run "ccmake -G Ninja ../llvm" at this stage, then I see FFI_INCLUDE_DIR is
blank, FFI_LIBRARY_DIR is blank and LLVM_ENABLE_FFI is OFF. I wouldn't expect
an error about ffi.h while LLVM_ENABLE_FFI off. Also, I would expect $CC to
search /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu and find ffi.h there.</pre>
