You can take a look at MacPorts [1], with which I have successfully
built subversion, apr, apr-util, expat, gettext, libiconv, neon,
openssl, and zlib universal, like this:

$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install apr-util +no_bdb
$ sudo port install subversion +no_bdb +universal

I think most of the software installs universal in the "usual" way
described in the Apple tech note. Only a few of the ports need
special help.

Note that MacPorts universal binaries target Mac OS X 10.4+ for both
Intel and PPC. MacPorts doesn't make universal binaries that run on
10.3+ on PPC and 10.4+ on Intel. That's more complicated.
