Wait... I thought the default behavior was for the +universal variant to be available to all ports, but that you had to select it if you wanted to use it.

Hello Ryan,

This is what I meant, or at least tried to express. +universal will be available to all ports unless they specify "universal_variant no". And universal variant code will have no effect (except listing this variant as available) unless users select +universal. The default behavior *of the universal variant* is to configure with universal flags.

Please feel free to correct the wording to make the man page easier to understand.

Paul
