 > So the pre-fixed version would, say, only have x86_64 bits

 Right, whatever was specified for build_arch in the user's macports.conf.

 > while the universal build would have x86_64 and i386?

 Right, whatever was specified for universal_archs in the user's
 macports.conf.

 > But how could Subversion link the i386 version against libserf-1.dylib
 when it only contains x86_64?  Or it only cares about the symbols and the
 symbols are there for both arches?

 It could not. MacPorts knows this and checks that the architectures match
 before allowing a build. If a user had tried to install or upgrade
 subversion +universal, MacPorts would have exited with an error explaining
 that it could not be done because dependency serf1 did not have a
 universal variant. And now it does so now it should work again.
