It was made available; it is available. I closed the ticket you filed  
as fixed and added a note there on October 30:

No, ports are not versioned or tied to MacPorts releases; changes in  
ports are always available immediately (allowing 30 minutes for the  
change to propagate from the svn server to the rsync server). "sudo  
port selfupdate" and then the variant should be available.

$ port variants php5

         universal
