 glib2 @2.62.5 +universal (meson build system) installs and appears to be
 universal (all the installed binaries are both x86_64 and i386 according
 to `lipo -info`) but trying to build something universal against it
 (litebrowser) leads to this error:

 {{{
 Undefined symbols for architecture i386:
   "Gio::InputStream::read(void*, unsigned int)", referenced from:
       html_widget::load_text_file(std::__1::basic_string<char,
 std::__1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char> > const&,
 std::__1::basic_string<char, std::__1::char_traits<char>,
 std::__1::allocator<char> >&) in html_widget.cpp.o
   "Gio::MemoryInputStream::add_data(void const*, int)", referenced from:
       http_loader::curlWriteFunction(void*, unsigned long, unsigned long,
 void*) in http_loader.cpp.o
 ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
 }}}

 But it works fine with glib2 @2.58.3_1 +universal (autoconf build system).

Comment:

 Sergey/Evan/Anyone, are you folks seeing any universal-related issues for
 PPC, with the GLib2 port you're currently running on your legacy hardware?
 And please confirm which one you have installed.
