Section 21.4.14 of the handbook has this advice:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If things went slightly wrong, it is easy to rebuild a particular piece
of the system. For example, if you accidentally deleted /etc/magic  as
part of the upgrade or merge of /etc, the file(1) command will stop
working. In this case, the fix would be to run:

    # cd /usr/src/usr.bin/file
    # make all install
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I've lost the beginning of this thread, so I apologize if this is what 
you already tried.
