This can be done in configure.ac:
--8<--
dnl ---- Check for ffi library

GB_COMPONENT_PKG_CONFIG(
  ffi,
  FFI,
  [foreign function interface],
  [],
  libffi)

if test -z "$FFI_LIB"; then
  GB_COMPONENT(
    ffi,
    FFI,
    [foreign function interface],
    [],
    [GB_FIND(ffi.h, /usr/local /usr /usr/lib /usr/lib/gcc/*/*, include 
ffi/include)],
    [GB_FIND(libffi.$SHLIBEXT, /usr/local /usr, lib)],
    [-lffi])
fi

if test -z "$FFI_LIB"; then
  AC_MSG_ERROR([libffi library and headers are required])
fi
--8<--

And in gbx/Makefile.am:
--8<--
gbx2_LDADD = @MATH_LIB@ @INTL_LIB@ @CONV_LIB@ @GETTEXT_LIB@ @DL_LIB@ 
@GBX_THREAD_LIB@ @TTY_LIB@ @FFI_LIB@
gbx2_CFLAGS = -DGAMBAS_PATH="\"$(bindir)\"" $(AM_CFLAGS)

gb_la_LIBADD = @MATH_LIB@ @INTL_LIB@ @CONV_LIB@ @GETTEXT_LIB@ @DL_LIB@ 
@GBX_THREAD_LIB@ @TTY_LIB@ @FFI_LIB@
gb_la_LDFLAGS = -module @LD_FLAGS@ @FFI_LDFLAGS@
gb_la_CFLAGS = -DGBX_INFO $(AM_CFLAGS) -O0
--8<--

Calling GB_COMPONENT_PKG_CONFIG() first take care of FFI_LDFLAGS.
