 indeed, that would be a problem.  the biggest file in the archive
 (other than the crunched binary) is usr/share/misc/magic.
 the file command is apparently used by distrib/sparc/install.md,
 which is used by distrib/miniroot/install.sh.  isn't all this
 script-based install stuff supposed to be replaced by sysinst?
 what's it all still doing here?
