neon fails to build +universal with universal_archs set only to x86_64

[jay+macports@…]

I have

universal_archs x86_64

in macports.conf and

+universal

in variants.conf. neon fails builing with

/bin/sh ../libtool --quiet --mode=link /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 -no-undefined -L/opt/local/lib -arch x86_64 -mmacosx-version-min=10.5 -flat_namespace -rpath /opt/local/lib -version-info 28:4:1 -export-symbols-regex '^ne_[^_]' -o libneon.la ne_request.lo ne_session.lo ne_basic.lo  ne_string.lo ne_uri.lo ne_dates.lo ne_alloc.lo ne_md5.lo ne_utils.lo ne_socket.lo ne_auth.lo ne_redirect.lo ne_compress.lo ne_i18n.lo ne_pkcs11.lo ne_207.lo ne_xml.lo ne_props.lo ne_locks.lo ne_xmlreq.lo  ne_acl.lo ne_openssl.lo -lintl -lssl -lcrypto  -lz -dynamic -O2 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk -arch x86_64 -mmacosx-version-min=10.5 -Wl,-search_paths_first -lgssapi_krb5 -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err -lresolv -lexpat

It looks like the generated libtool doesn't have global_symbol_pipe set (when building with +universal and universal_archs set to x86_64) which is the direct cause of that error.

I haven't generated a patch for this yet, but I am able to reproduce the issue.

There is no longer any reason to use +universal with only one universal_arch set.
