 portaudio includes these lines:

 {{{
 # Universal building is on by default
 universal_variant   no
 }}}

 "`universal_variant no`" is supposed to mean that the port cannot or does
 not need to build universal. But portaudio does build universal, always.
 So you should remove "`universal_variant no`" because that is not
 accurate.

 Then, you should do one of two things:

  * Preferably, you would fix the port so that if you do not request the
 universal variant, it does not build universal. And if you do request the
 universal variant, it builds universal, respecting the user's choices of
 universal_archs, universal_sysroot, universal_target from macports.conf.
  * If that's not possible, then you should define an empty universal
 variant and cause the port to auto-select that variant and require it to
 be selected, to indicate that it is in fact universal software. See the
 port [browser:trunk/dports/sysutils/isightcapture/Portfile at 38619#L51
 isightcapture] for an example of this.
