 Replying to [comment:8 egall@…]:
 > Any idea why the buildbot built previous versions of boost with the
 `+universal` variant, but not more recent ones?

 The only time the buildbot will build a port with a universal variant is
 if some port that is 32-bit only depends on it, and it will only be built
 when that 32-bit-only port is committed (in other words, it won't happen
 when boost is updated; it'll happen when the 32-bit port that depends on
 boost is updated). I don't see any ports that currently fit that criteria,
 except for povray in certain circumstances, so maybe some other port used
 to be 32-bit only and has since been upgraded to support 64-bit.
