Comment (by ryandesign at macports.org):

 All this is in very early stages of thinking. The openssl port was only
 just rewritten for more sane universal binary building. The commented-out
 list of 4 architectures is a reminder from the port author to himself that
 support for all 4 architectures still needs to be considered. I have
 already pointed out that we do not want the list of architectures
 hardcoded into each port. Therefore the variable configure.universal_archs
 is now available in base. However that version of MacPorts has not yet
 been released so the portfile cannot be updated to use that variable.
 Also, there is not yet a mechanism for users to configure what they want
 in that variable. I'm not yet convinced we should allow users to configure
 this.

 All of this discussion is inappropriate in this ticket. This ticket was
 filed becauset he universal variant of openssl did not work. It was fixed
 so that it now works and the ticket was closed. All subsequent discussion
 is an unrelated issue. Since there's not yet consensus what needs to be
 done, if anything, this discussion should be taking place on the macports-
 devel mailing list. Please subscribe and open the discussion there.
