There have been numerous bug fixes since 5.09 plus magic fixes. From the
ChangeLog:

	* Support Tilera architectures (tile64, tilepro, tilegx).
	* Add magic for /usr/bin/env Perl scripts
	* Weaken generic script magic to avoid clashing with
	language-specific magic.
	* Simplify if (p) free(p) to free(p).
	* Remove hardwired token finding (names.h), turning it into soft
	magic. Patterns are either anchored regexs or search/8192. English
	language detection and PL/1 detection have been removed as they
	were too fragile. -e tokens is still accepted for backwards
	compatibility.
	* Move 3ds patterns (which are commented out anyway) into autodesk
	(they were, oddly, in c-lang).
	* Tweak strength of generic hash-bang detectors to be less than
	specific ones.
	* Make an inconsistent description of Python scripts consistent.
	* Fix minor error in file(1).
	* Fix issue #150 (I hope).
	* Python3 binding fixes from Kelly Anderson
