Thanks for your help!

Being completely new to MacPorts, would you care to explain to me the best
way to do this?

Should I include the following in the Portfile:

variant disable_asm_optimizations description "Disable asm optimizations" {
    configure.args-append   --disable-asm-optimizations
}

...or should I include the switch as default and include a
"configure.args-delete" (like the "disable-xmms-plugin" variant) instead?

I tried it as above and flac is now installed as "flac
@1.2.1_0+disable_asm_optimizations". Thank you!
