The libffi 3.4.2 import badly broke Solaris/x86 bootstrap with the native
assembler:
Assembler:

Solaris as doesn't support .macro/.endm.
Fixed by using #define instead of the unportable .macro.
Tested on i386-pc-solaris2.11 and x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
The bug has been reported upstream
(https://github.com/libffi/libffi/issues/665); a corresponding pull
request is also pending (https://github.com/libffi/libffi/pull/669).
