New description:

 I have orbit2 installed.  I just tried to upgrade wine-devel.  It seems
 that it now requires universal builds of libraries.
 No problem, the upgrade causes orbit2 to attempt to rebuild universal, I
 believe.  But, that upgrade fails.
 So, I have already installed:
 {{{
   orbit2 @2.14.19_0 (active)
 }}}

 My upgrade leads to this:

 {{{

 --->  Attempting to fetch

 The log, attached, seems to show that some symbols can't be found for
 linking.

Comment:

 wine is i386 only. If your processor is x86_64 (most Intel Macs are), then
 yes, all wine dependencies must be installed universal. This is nothing
 new; it has always been this way.

 MacPorts should have known to upgrade libidl to universal, since it is a
 declared dependency of orbit2. The only reason I can think of why this
 wouldn't have happened is if you had originally installed libidl with a
 MacPorts version older than 1.9 (which is possible, since libidl was last
 updated two months before MacPorts 1.9 was released).
