Comment (by t.tensi@…):

 Dear Ryan,

 there is another problem with the current nettle portfile: when
 building universal it blindly assumes an Intel machine as the host.  I
 have run it on a PowerPC Mac and here the line
 {{{
     set merger_configure_args(i386)
 --build=i686-apple-${os.platform}${os.major}
 }}}
 does of course pose problems.

 I would also recommend to introduce a temporary variable like
 {{{
 set suffix apple-${os.platform}${os.major}
 }}}
 that may be used to simplify the file significantly.

 Best regards,

 Thomas
