Comment(by mcalh...@…):

 Replying to [comment:4 ryandes...@…]:
I'm not prepared to, for every new version of curl, configure for each architecture and manually compare the headers to see how they differ, so I'll have to look for an automated solution, maybe the merge() function,
 maybe the new merge-universal portgroup.


For what it's worth, this is the type of situation I had in mind for the
 merge-universal portgroup.[[BR]]
I have not yet had time to add merge-universal to any ports in the trunk
 (only my local repository), but I can look into it.

With all the 64-bit issues I'm seeing with various ports of mine, or more especially with the reports of 64-bit issues from others which have no readily-apparent symptoms, I'm about ready to use use the merge-universal portgroup for every port.
