Comment(by xellos@…):

 Right, thanks Phil.

 I've managed to install this port by adding explicit architecture switch
 to configure arguments. This way qt tells lipo about architecture of .out
 files and everything proceeds without problems.

 This can be achieved without modifying port file by using +universal
 variant which calls "configure.args-append -arch ${arch}" for both x86 and
 x86_64. Keep in mind that this requires all dependencies to be available
 as universal binaries.

 The other way is to add "-arch x86_64" (for newer macs) or "-arch x86"
 (for 32bit intel macs) to configure.args in Portfile at line 81. I don't
 know port system's variable that would allow accessing proper value for
 given machine, so I cannot send universal patch.
