-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 The muniversal portgroup should never attempt to merge certain kinds of
 files, including pkg-config .pc files (see #19953, #20727, #21583, #21605,
 #21648) and -config scripts (see #21398, #21461, #21653, #21949). This
 issue is particularly problematic because the affected port installs as if
 nothing is wrong. It's not until later, when you try to install a port
 that depends on this one, that you encounter a problem, and it takes some
 time then to understand the problem.
