Thanks.

In the past, libffi could be disabled independently.  This in itself
would not cause libjava to fail, because libjava accounts for this
possibility.

Since the only existing case where there was a libjava port without a
corresponding libffi port has gone away, I think it isn't very important
to try to support this.  In the unlikely event that someone needs this,
they can come up with a new plan to handle it.
