Actually you don't need FFI in order to work on MT.
It might save trouble to just not include it.

This tests a number of different configs, some with enable-portability 
and some without.  I'm hoping that (as happens for me), at least SOME
of these configurations work.
I think you can work on hash tables just as well in any of them, so
you might as well just find one that works and use that.
Even if the hash table code turns out to depend on these config 
differences, you might as well start with one that works.

The result of the make above (eventually) is a whole set of build
directories with names like build-porting64-gcc-debug_gcsafety,
build-porting64-gcc-generational_gc-old_gc, etc.
