mhash is a dependency of php5 which is a dependency of php5-mcrypt via the php5extension portgroup.

We chose the description "Build for multiple architectures" for the +universal variant in MacPorts because which architectures we build for varies by default by OS version, and is changeable by the user. On Leopard and earlier, we default to ppc i386. On Snow Leopard and later, we default to x86_64 i386. The user can change this by changing universal_archs in macports.conf, after which any ports that were already built universal should probably be manually rebuilt by the user.
