 Replying to [comment:4 mcalhoun@…]:
 > What was the value of universal_archs on the PowerPC build?[[BR]]
 The default, i386 ppc.
 > The PortGroup would have removed the i386 and x86_64 architectures.
 Yes, it did.
 > The two ports used to build using -arch, but, as can be seen in the
 header files, the build were incorrect.[[BR]]
 > I figured it was better to build correctly on fewer architectures than
 incorrectly on all architectures.
 But it is better still to build correctly for all four architectures. :)
 Not doing so limits the 130 ports that depend on ncurses and ncursesw to a
 similar fate.
