The libffi 3.4.2 import badly broke Solaris/x86 bootstrap with the native
assembler:

Assembler:
        "/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libffi/src/x86/win64.S", line 88 :
Illegal mnemonic
        Near line: ".macro epilogue"
        "/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libffi/src/x86/win64.S", line 88 : Syntax

        Near line: ".macro epilogue"
        "/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libffi/src/x86/win64.S", line 95 :

        Near line: ".endm"
        "/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libffi/src/x86/win64.S", line 95 : Syntax
error
        Near line: ".endm"
        "/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libffi/src/x86/win64.S", line 100 :
Illegal mnemonic
        Near line: " epilogue"
        "/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libffi/src/x86/win64.S", line 100 :
Syntax error
        Near line: "epilogue"

Solaris as doesn't support .macro/.endm.

Fixed by using #define instead of the unportable .macro.

Tested on i386-pc-solaris2.11 and x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.

The bug has been reported upstream
(https://github.com/libffi/libffi/issues/665); a corresponding pull
request is also pending (https://github.com/libffi/libffi/pull/669).
Both have been ignored so far.

Ok for master?

	Rainer
