I just did this under 1.8:

ui_msg "The +server variant is obsolete. Please install the $

Yes it should. You did not see that message printed after the line
"---> Configuring mysql5"?
I was using -d so a lot went by, mysql5 was installed, I figured it
should have aborted? a port installed showed it was installed, so
I removed it, and then ran sudo port install mysql5-server, which
made everything mostly work.
So this ui_msg is not designed to abort, it is just informational?
It is just informational. It does not abort. mysql5 installs without
server support. The message reminds you if you want server support
you now have to additionally install mysql5-server.
I used the same approach when I removed variants from graphviz and
php5. Would it be better to abort the installation process and force
the user to deal with the situation right there?
