dependencies question



If port A is dependent upon port B and port B is only for arch ARCH,
shouldn't port A also be only for ARCH?   Example:

$ cd /usr/ports/math/maxima/                                         
$ make
===>  maxima-5.9.0 depends on: clisp-* - not found
===>  Verifying install for clisp-* in lang/clisp
===>  clisp-2.33 is only for i386, not amd64.
===> Returning to build of maxima-5.9.0
===>  maxima-5.9.0 depends on: clisp-* - not found
===>  Verifying install for clisp-* in lang/clisp
