Since we've confirmed the problem, I've filed a bug:

I hope that will not be the end of the discussion, though, and that
someone will continue thinking about a way to solve the problem...
Just to complete the thread here on the list, in case anyone was
waiting for the resolution:
I worked around the problem for ports that depend on XFree86 by
deleting its nonfunctional universal variant. See #12137.
I filed new tickets for what I believe to be bugs in base; I don't
think I would have run into the original problem if those issues in
base didn't exist. See #12169 (MacPorts shouldn't evaluate variants
of non-required dependencies) and #12170 (the default +universal
variant shouldn't appear in ports where we know it won't work).
