No package 'libffi' found

Which is precisely why I don't like building packages and prefer
to rely on distributions. Someone else has already chased through
all the cascading dependencies. I've googled for "guile 2.0 dependencies"
and meandered the software/guile pages, but the build prerequisites are
not clearly laid out.
Here is my project's pre-release:

It depends on Guile and a Bourne shell, though preferably bash.
"gperf" and "libxml2" are also nice, but not required.
