'universal' is a variant that is meant to work with the port (see {{{port
info giflib5}}}). Legacy systems need libraries to support +universal so
apps can be built for different systems (Apple shipped their libraries
universal). It was broken, so it was included in my fixes. I have tested
building on 10.5.8 & 10.11.6 Intel, +universal. +universal use to be the
default, so many old macports installations have their ports installed
that way.
