Comment (by jmroot):

 Replying to [comment:5 mojca]:
 > I didn't intentionally make any of the mingw ports non-universal, that
 is: I'm not yet aware of any reason why the port would not build as
 universal until I try it and fail.

 The crossgcc.setup proc sets `universal_variant no`.

 > Also, there are a number of things that are not entirely clear to me. To
 start with, `mingw-w64` is declared as being `noarch`, so it's not clear
 to me why MacPorts is complaining about universal in the first place.

 MacPorts is complaining in the context of i686-w64-mingw32-crt, which does
 have a universal variant, and depends on i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-bootstrap,
 which does not have a universal variant.
