File changed so that it now has precompiled "magic" files. They should have been installed when you installed the world.

If not, you'll need to build and install them yourself. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
