The --with-system-ffi was removed back in Python-3.12.0, in upstream
commit [1].
From the Python 3.12 release notes:
- gh-100540: Removed the ``--with-system-ffi`` ``configure`` option;
``libffi`` must now always be supplied by the system on all non-Windows
platforms. The option has had no effect on non-Darwin platforms for
several releases, and in 3.11 only had the non-obvious effect of invoking
``pkg-config`` to find ``libffi`` and never setting
``-DUSING_APPLE_OS_LIBFFI``. Now on Darwin platforms ``configure`` will
first check for the OS ``libffi`` and then fall back to the same
processing as other platforms if it is not found.
Buildroot includes such a Python 3.12.x version since commit [2].
When compiling python3 in Buildroot, the package configuration step
reports the warning:
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: [...] --with-system-ffi
The commit drops the now defunct option.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at https://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
