Comment (by ryandesign):

 Replying to [comment:5 jgrg]:
 > Binary Perl modules are usually built using the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS that
 were used to build `perl`, but it seems that MacPorts has some kind of
 cunning mechanism that keeps whatever flags are needed for universal
 builds out of the Perl config so that building a universal module doesn't
 happen by default?

 Yes, Perl seems to be under the impression that whatever compiler and I
 guess flags were used to build Perl should be used to build perl modules
 as well. We do not consider that to be appropriate behavior in MacPorts so
 we prevent it from happening. From our point of view, every port build
 should happen with the compiler and flags that were requested for that
 build.
