MacPorts doesn't check for Homebrew. Some build might fail in strange
ways without the cause being obvious, though. If you're going to file a
bug report that contains the string "/usr/local" note that you will be
told to move /usr/local aside. It is officially unsupported to have
stuff in /usr/local while using MacPorts, see
  http://trac.macports.org/wiki/FAQ#usrlocal.

That doesn't mean it can't be done, but you should take care.
