Let's wait for official support of +universal with that...

eventually the whole if clause will be gone anyway.

I mean really, there's worse problems than obsolete warnings, especially with gettext. e.g. gettext +universal is somehow incomplete: all the libasprintf-related files are missing completely. diff the results of port contents with and without +universal and see for yourself (ideas, patches appreciated)

see also http://page.mi.fu-berlin.de/~pipping/macports/universal for a list of such problems.

When installing gettext +universal, port warns me that it might not work because the port already overrides CFLAGS or LDFLAGS:

$ sudo port install gettext +universal

However, this is not a problem here because the gettext port deals with the situation:

if {[llength [info commands configure.universal_ldflags-append]] > 0} {
        configure.universal_ldflags-append -L$prefix/lib
        configure.universal_cflags-append -I$prefix/include -no-cpp-precomp
} else {
        variant universal {
return -code error "You need to be running MacPorts 1.4.0 or higher to \
                use this variant (universal)."
        }
}

port should not print that warning if configure.universal_cflags- append or .universal_ldflags-append are used.
