 So to clarify: this is a problem even though that is
 WhatTheBuildersIntended?

 build trees and I'm not sure what port will try to do with the orphan
 build tree for i386.

 Well, port is not actually orphaning that i386 build tree but is forcing a
 second build of the entire app in that tree too. This is
 NotWhatTheDevelopersIntended and makes a slow build twice as slow...

 Ooh, that did not go well; the port system apparently tries to slam both
 trees together and uses libtool to merge libraries, each of which already
 contains both i386 and x86_64 code. See log snippets below.

 Is there any way to get the port build system to keep its hands off the
 build and not try that goofy merge when doing a universal variant?
 TheOriginalDevelopersOfACE have the build figured out but port is forcing
 extra steps which are failing. Maybe another possibility is to get it to
 do two legit configuration steps so there really is just i386 object code
 in one tree and x86_64 code in another? I could get that to happen if I
 can do a separate reinplace substitution for each tree.
