Comment (by kencu):

 we talked about allowing the Intel Mac to accept a premade universal
 package from an arm64 system (which could build it +universal as it can
 run the x86_64 binary during the build).

 However, as far as I know, that was in the end not supported, as it was
 deemed to be just too confusing for people to understand what was going
 on.

 You could try it.

 Build libgpg-error +universal on your arm64 Mac, and then move the package
 into
 {{{
 /opt/local/var/macports/incoming/verified
 }}}

 and then try to get MacPorts to install the binary:
 {{{
 sudo port -v -b install libgpg-error +universal
 }}}

 and there is a chance it will do it. Most likely it will not.
