Thanks Nathan,

I installed gyp from subversion (as above), checked that I was using Python 2.7 and placed libffi.gyp into my main 'ffi' folder (in my particular case, F:\+GTK-SOURCES\gnu-win32\src\libffi).  I then ran the 2nd of the above lines (gyp.bat etc) and I received this error:-

gyp: name 'target_arch' is not defined while evaluating condition 'target_arch== "ia32"'
in libffi.gyp while trying to load libffi.gyp

Does that indicate any obvious problem?
