From Googling around it seems to be the shared library that corresponds to the static library (libgcc.a) which I do have on my system. Not sure if there's a way for me to force the libffi.so to be statically linked to libgcc.a instead of dynamically linking to libgcc_s.so? Anyways, it looks like I'm going to have to pester the administrators to re-install the gnu toolchain and hope that resolves the issue...

Well, we need the static libffi, not the shared one. Maybe there's a flag to the libffi config like --disable-dynamic? You might also be able to force static linkage of gcc with -static-libgcc passed to the linker.

If you have access to a build machine running Solaris 10/sparc have you given thought to using the Solaris 8 Container
(http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/containers/getit.jsp ) in order to create a JNA build compatible with Solaris 8 and above?

Sorry, don't have a sparc available. I've been relying on the kindness of strangers (actually some of the JRuby guys) to get the sparc build.
