Hmm, could very well be related to using the 10.15 SDK on Mojave (this is 
the default when installing Xcode from the App Store so I'm guessing I'm 
not unique in this regard). Busy downloading Xcode 10.3 now - will give it 
a try and see if it helps.

Sure - I've put the full output of the build here:
http://dl.rsx11.net/misc/python38-output.log

Quite a few references to ffi, including:
...
Header file /usr/include/ffi/ffi.h does not exist
...
fatal error: 'ffi_common.h' file not found

Configure log file is here:
http://dl.rsx11.net/misc/python38-config.log

Cheers, MJ
