I have the same question.

I have configured in ports.conf like below:

  20 # Where to find global variants definition file (optional)
21 variants_conf       /opt/local/etc/ports/variants.conf

And, I added two variants, +multibyte, +ruby in /opt/local/etc/ports/ 
variants.conf

  12 # Example:
13 # +ipv6 +no_x11
14 +multibyte +ruby

BUT, I cannot see that variants are used.
For example, when I try to build VIM, just type "port -vd install  
vim", the result is
---------------------------------------
Coffee:~ jenix$ sudo port -vd install vim
Password:
DEBUG: Found port in file:///opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/ 
rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/editors/vim

DEBUG: Found port in file:///opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/ 
rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/devel/gettext
---------------------------------------

there is no any variants used.
BUT, when I try to build VIM with "port -vd install vim +multibyte  
+ruby",
---------------------------------------
Coffee:~ jenix$ sudo port -vd install vim +multibyte +ruby
DEBUG: Found port in file:///opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/ 
rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/editors/vim

DEBUG: Requested variant darwin is not provided by port vim.
DEBUG: Requested variant i386 is not provided by port vim.
DEBUG: Requested variant macosx is not provided by port vim.
DEBUG: Executing variant multibyte provides multibyte
DEBUG: Executing variant ruby provides ruby
DEBUG: Executing variant darwin_i386 provides darwin_i386
---------------------------------------

You can see that ruby, multibyte variants have been activated.

What's wrong with me? Could you give me any advice?
