I assume your magic entries are reasonably unique, I haven't verified them.
I've installed them in the read-write copy of the sipb locker, and they'll
be available upon volume release tomorrow morning. You can test with:
set -- myfile
/mit/sipb/bin/file -m /afs/.sipb.mit.edu/project/sipb/share/magic "$@"
Do you expect to be submitting more magic changes soon? If so, I'll
delay my magic submissions to the file maintainer and batch them.

Fixed.
