Just for fun I tried:

% file *
4.2-install.iso: MS Windows COFF Unknown CPU
CHECKSUM.MD5:    ASCII text

Hmmm. If someone has any time on their hands we oughta touch up 
file(1)'s definitions table. Can't have it thinking an image of the 
FreeBSD install CD is "MS Windows COFF Unknown CPU"  :-)

Wondering if file(1) made its decision looking at the boot code?
