 This will compile and install CFFI in this virtualenv, using the
 Python from this virtualenv.

+
+Reports on NetBSD are not good.  You first need to make sure you have an
+up-to-date version of libffi, which fixes some bugs.  However, there are
+still a number of segfaults and failures running the CFFI tests (see
+`issue 321`__).  Contributions welcome.
