In order to build libglib for RISC OS you need to have the glib-genmarshal
executable for your build machine. That's why this gets first built
using your native gcc compiler and this gets then installed in
$GCCSDK_INSTALL_CROSS (where the RISC OS cross-compiler is installed).
After that the RISC OS libglib build will be done, at that point
glib-genmarshal is used.

That's on its own if perfectly fine. Without further details I can't
see what your libffi problem would be.
