Also ran into this issue while building Python in an isolated environment. Realized that libffi is installing into the $EPREFIX/lib64 directory of our build environment. Despite pkg-config returning the correct directory for linking libffi, it took explicitly setting LDFLAGS to the correct lib64 directory in my build process for the Python build to succeed. I noticed from your build.log that you don't explicitly add your lib64 to your LDFLAGS. Perhaps give that a shot?
