OK, not directly helpful. I checked the configure script and it's
looking for
if test -r $i/include/magic.h || test -r $i/magic.h; then
FILEINFO_DIR=$i
AC_MSG_RESULT(found in $i)
break
a header file. 5.3 did not install this header (5.4 does), so you can
either upgrade to 5.4 (may be necessary to avoid further problems
later), or try copying /usr/src/contrib/file/magic.h to
/usr/include/magic.h and see if it works.
