Comment:

 I missed that this was an attempt to build lbzip2 +universal (that is, for
 more than one architecture). This was implied by argyll, because it can
 only be built as i386.

 This log shows that it tried to build for i386, x86_64, and ppc. I assume
 you do not actually want to produce binaries for PowerPC. Please check the
 value of the option `universal_archs` in
 `/opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf`. It is supposed to only list
 x86_64 and i386 for Intel Macs as shown below. And while you are at it,
 also compare and replace other values with their defaults as defined in
 `macports.conf.default` right next to the configuration file.
