 The root port fails to install if the file port is installed, and the
 xorg-libX11 port is installed with the universal variant.

 The root port's configure script attempts to verify that its dependencies
 are installed for the correct architectures. While this is a fine goal, it
 does so using the `file` command and grepping the output for "64-bit".
 Apple's version of the `file` command shipped with Mac OS X does have this
 output for universal and non-universal 64-bit files, but the file port's
 `file` command only does this for non-universal files; it [ticket:11747
 doesn't understand universal files].

 The simplest solution for us is to just rip out this architecture
 verification code from root's configure script, since MacPorts base
 already includes architecture verification code.
