For some reason I always compile some components as 64-bit...

Looks kind of the same as before. I don't know what's happening. Try cleaning the port and trying again with the debug flag from the beginning so we get the complete output:

sudo port clean erlang
sudo port -d install erlang 2>&1 | tee ~/Desktop/erlang.txt
bzip2 ~/Desktop/erlang.txt

Then file a ticket in the issue tracker and attach the file erlang.txt.bz2 from your desktop to the ticket.

What do you mean? Snow Leopard runs 32-bit on 32-bit Macs and 64-bit on 64-bit Macs, and on 64-bit Macs, you can run 64-bit or 32-bit software. What kind of Mac do you have, with what processor?

On my system, when I installed the erlang port, I did not get any app. Which app are you talking about and how did you install it? And is it actually a problem that it's 64-bit? Does it not work? What error message is produced?

Do not set universal_archs to only a single architecture; that's not supported. The purpose of the universal variant is to build for multiple architectures.
