It certainly does build for armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf.  But then, only iOS
defines FFI_EXEC_TRAMPOLINE_TABLE, wherein the trouble lies.

The development process relies on those having access to proprietary operating
systems fixing the problems that arise on those systems.  I don't have access
to iOS.

That said, the problem appears to be trivial.  Please try the following.
