New description:

 It's not clear whether this is an issue with `rust-bootstrap`, `cmake-
 bootstrap`, or both. But the former enables `+universal` by default,
 whilst the latter no longer supports universal builds as of 2023-06:

 [a4fda7b98703ff055b9dacb7e1dca58d5376d490/macports-ports]

 Perhaps that's fine though...?

 However, the build for `rust-bootstrap` is blocked, due to `cmake-
 bootstrap` failing to build:

 This did not disable the universal variant. It added `universal_variant
 no` which merely tells MacPorts base not to add the default universal
 variant. But the port still includes the muniversal portgroup which adds
 its own universal variant. To disable the universal variant would require
 removing the muniversal portgroup.
