Pkgsrc sysutils/file is the same as the version that is in NetBSD.

Not returning the specific MIME type for XZ looks to be a bug in the
original definition to me.

In magic/magdir/compress, there is a blank line between the non-MIME
and the MIME lines for XZ.

Putting a copy of the definition in ~/.magic with the blank line removed
makes it return "application/x-xz; charset=binary" for me.
