Ah. Right.
The problem is that you are asking MacPorts to install *all* of wine-devel's
recursive dependencies with the universal variant:

That includes the xattr port which you don't need.
If you just ran "sudo port install wine-devel" MacPorts should do the right
thing.
If that's not possible for some reason and you need to explicitly list every
port to install, then manually exclude xattr from the list:
sudo port -v install $( port echo rdepof:wine-devel and not xattr | sed 's/$/
+x11 +universal/' )
P.S: Note also the placement of the "-v" argument. Single-letter flags only
have an effect if they are placed right after the "port" command, before the
subcommand (before "install" in this case).
