I get the same build failure with Python 2.7.5 and 3.2.5 under 64-bit Cygwin even though I configure --with-system-ffi and have libffi-devel installed. I noticed that libffi-devel installs its headers in a non-standard location: $ cygcheck -l libffi-devel | fgrep .h /usr/lib/libffi-3.0.13/include/ffi.h /usr/lib/libffi-3.0.13/include/ffitarget.h AFAICT, this prevents Python's build system from using the system provided libffi and attempt to build its own causing an error like the one above. I can workaround the problem by creating symlinks to the libffi header files in /usr/include: $ ln -s /usr/lib/libffi-3.0.13/include/* /usr/include It appears that others have successfully built Python under 64-bit Cygwin without resorting to my workaround. Does anyone know what I'm missing?
