Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 There are a couple approaches you could use.

  1. call `/usr/bin/file` instead of `file`
  2. delete the entire function that involves the calls to `file` (or
 rather replace them with no-ops that always set the flag variable to true)
 since they're not needed within the confines of MacPorts
