The powerpc64 ABIs align structs passed by value, a fact ignored by gcc for quite some time. Since gcc now does the correct alignment, libffi needs to follow suit. This ought to be made selectable via a new abi value, and the #ifdefs removed from ffi.c along with many other #ifdefs present there and in assembly. I'll do that with a followup patch sometime. This is a revised version of https://sourceware.org/ml/libffi-discuss/2013/msg00162.html
