Comment (by ryandesign):

 As with wget, curl apparently uses libpsl if present. I didn't know that,
 which is why these ports didn't handle this situation. Now that I know, I
 will investigate the proper solution: either make curl depend on libpsl
 unconditionally as was done for wget; or prevent the use of libpsl; or add
 a variant so the user can choose.

 If MacPorts installed curl universal without you asking for that, it
 must've been required at the time. It is of course possible that you
 subsequently uninstalled whatever it was that needed curl to be universal.
 But there is no built-in automatic way to reinstall universal ports
 nonuniversally. Some scripting would be required. I'm sure I've posted
 some part of such a script to the mailing list some years ago.
