<p><code>libffi</code> is missing a few features.  We welcome patches to add
support for these.
</p>
<ul>
<li> Variadic closures.

</li><li> There is no support for bit fields in structures.

</li><li> The &ldquo;raw&rdquo; API is undocumented.

</li><li> The Go API is undocumented.
</li></ul>

<p>Note that variadic support is very new and tested on a relatively
small number of platforms.
