Two proposals:

1) Tell RPM and Subversion to explicitly enable libmagic support so they
fail if libmagic-dev isn't installed on the host, and document that
libmagic-dev is a build requirement
2) Change file-replacement-native to install libmagic, and add
file-replacement-native as a dependency to subversion-native and rpm-native.

Does anyone have a strong opinion either way?
