That is done to work around a problem where the build would fail during configure if the user had MacPorts own 'file' port installed, due if I remember correctly (its been a while) due to it not properly supporting universal binaries. If this has changed, then it can be removed, but I think assuming /usr/bin/file is there is not a major deal ;)
Perhaps not, but I have a pathological aversion to unnecessary patching :P -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38868#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
