Yes, MacPorts uses 64-bit by default on Snow Leopard if your hardware
supports it. Why do you want to force 32-bit?

This is an invalid architecture. Intel 32-bit is i386, Intel 64-bit is
x86_64.

You probably don't want to change universal_archs, which is only used
when building +universal. You seem to be looking for the build_arch setting.
