Thanks for your quick feedback!  I signed the CLA after submitting the PR, but 
I think it takes a bit of time to percolate through the system.

As for the "why", until 3.9.1 conda-forge had been successfully using an 
external ffi (with 3.9.0 + osx-arm64 patches) and then suddenly it broke.  For 
the time being conda-forge is using the system ffi, which does have other 
advantages as well, having all the latest patches.  However, I was curious as 
to _why_ it broke, and that led me to discover this bug, and it seemed 
straightforward to fix.  When/if conda-forge will switch back to external ffi 
is TBD, but if that decision is made this issue (at least) will be taken care 
of.
