Wouldn't this do the job?

platform foo {
	universal_variant no
}
configure.universal_archs i386 ppc

Sounds like kind of an artificial limitation though, if it builds 64-bit
when non-universal. (If it didn't, you'd just set supported_archs,
right?) And you have to ask yourself if the number of people who
actually need an i386/ppc universal build is worth the effort.
