Ah, thanks. I planned to verify that (this feature wasn't documented on guide.macports last time I looked) but in the mean time I got around the issue by using `depends_skip_archcheck` .
I don't know if depends_build is truly handled differently from depends_lib but if it is, it might be useful to have a depends_build_skip_archcheck option. Ports depending on python (or other ports that install both binaries and libraries) to do part of their build process without ever looking at the helper port's libraries shouldn't need to cause that helper port to be installed +universal.

R.
