assuming you already have the port, updated. compare the output of

libncurses.5.4.dylib
and
/usr/bin/file /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/lib/
libncurses.5.4.dylib
that should answer your question.
If /usr/bin/file provides a functionality superset of gfile, why
would anyone install gfile?
If gfile has some useful features not found in /usr/bin/file, then
perhaps the ultimate solution is to enhance /opt/local/bin/file to
make it provide a functionality superset of /usr/bin/file.
Just my 2 cents' worth,
