The portfile for freeimage begins with this line:

I don't know what the line does. I guess it informs some editor that this is a tcl file, but I don't know what editor that would be. Does anyone know?

It's Emacs.

No other portfiles begin with (or contain) such a line, so I would like to remove it for consistency (so that all portfiles begin with the # $Id$ line). Any objection to removing this line?

Is there any technical merit to consistency here? If not and if you absolutely *have* to do something, replace it for clarity with

# Emacs, this is a -*- tcl -*- file.

or something like that.
