I’m trying to install a port universal on Leopard. It fails because one of its 
dependencies is cmake, and:

Error: cmake cannot be installed for the configured universal_archs 'i386 ppc' 
because it only supports the arch(s) 'i386 x86_64’.

Why is MacPorts trying to install cmake universal? It’s already installed 
non-universal, and the cmake Portfile contains the line:

installs_libs no

I thought that line was supposed to explain to MacPorts that this port installs 
no libraries, therefore its architectures don’t need to match, therefore 
there’s no need to rebuild it.

I don’t want to have to add the line:

depends_skip_archcheck-append cmake

to every port that uses cmake to fix this problem.
