you got it, my openssl3 is +universal (was also already in the previous 
4 installs, according to port installed, before it was 64bit only).
This would explain also why I have opnessl3 issues at all on 10.11!

My current libmpc is 64bit.

It doesn't explain why libpc shouldn't build universal, but the real 
question, where is all this universal coming from? I never requested it 
on this system. Can I trace the ports(s) pulling it in?
a quick grep for universal in ports shoes a lot of active:
python310, libomp, sqlite3, xz, libffi, libiconv, expat and even 
clang-11-boostrap
