Comment (by jonesc@…):

 > > 2. Is it necessary that `/usr/bin/file` be used in `configure`? We
 usually don’t go out of the way to use the system’s versions of simple
 tools. What problem does this prevent?
 >
 > 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 ;)

 The relevant ticket that lead to that patch is

 https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31260

 So if the issue that refers to is fixed, then it can be removed.

 cheers Chris
