Besides of OpenSolaris, OsX is the only system where application being
delivered as one package for all supported architectures, AFAIK. So
concept is not applicable here; however, you can search for a package
which contains specific file for your architecture.
* can you search for packages that depend on the C++ runtime library
and deliver a file to /usr/lib?
No; you can only make those two searches separately.
However this usage pattern is quite uncommon, especially comparing to
`get list of strategic games' or `list of qt-based IM clients'
You can do either of those with pkg(5) as well if the proper metadata
exists.
So, as I said before, "rudimentary" is relative.
