Hmm.  Seems that there was another mixup :)  There is no such file
in the FreeBSD source tree - the file(1) sources live in src/contrib.
As a matter of fact, the file name you specified is exactly correct
once you substitute contrib for usr.bin - which points to another
problem: FreeBSD does not do such changes to contributed software.
For more information, read src/contrib/file/MAINT to find out how
the current file(1) maintainer, Christos Zoulas, would like you to
submit this patch to him for inclusion in the official release :)

G'luck,
Peter
