So the rebuild issue is that likely, there are dependencies being had that aren't actually recorded. So when you build package X with universal it may not go back in and rebuild Y universal as well. You could dump out the ports you actually want (port echo requested) and save them somewhere, deactivate everything you have installed, then feed your list of requested ports in as your install command. Be sure to add +universal if you still want it.
