Comment (by kencu):

 On BigSur Intel/arm64 ninja builds fine +universal without the muniversal
 PG, but fails with it added unless additional workarounds are added to
 allow the muniversal PG to function.

 /opt/local/bin/ninja: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures:
 [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64] [arm64:Mach-O 64-bit executable
 arm64]

 I wonder if they cleaned up their build since this ticket was opened, and
 if we might not need the muniversal PG any longer.

 If we don't need it for older systems or i386/x86_64, that would make
 thinngs simpler to build ninja universal, as it just builds without any
 fuss on BigSur.
