Commit 9c279328ee12fc869adff63ca81f1230977bd42b

testsuite: Remove fragile stack pointer checks testsuite/libffi.call/closure_stdcall.c and testsuite/libffi.call/closure_thiscall.c include inline assembly to save the stack pointer before and after the call, and compare the values. However, compilers can and do leave the stack in different states for these two pieces of inline assembly, such as by saving a temporary value on the stack across the call; observed with gcc -Os, and verified as spurious through careful inspection of disassembly.
