should clearly report that with a "File too large for payload"

The file itself is only 95984 bytes.

If I delete that file during the build, the build errors on another file
the same way.
So, a bug in libmagic?

Smaller packages can be built just fine. I've doubled the ulimit on
files open, memory, etc. but it fails on the same file on a rebuild.
Any ideas?
You should be able to get past it by doing 'chmod a-x
%{buildroot}/foo/bar/libfile.so' at end of %install section (and/or
possibly adjust %files section to make it non-executable there too).
The dependencies wont get recorded that way, but that can be worked
around by manually adding them in the spec if need be.
It doesn't matter if the file is executable or non-executable. The error
still occurs, albeit with "mode 100644".
Hmm, when it should only warn, not error out on non-executable files. Of
course it'll still fail to get the dependencies right, so the best
option is to fix (by updating I suppose) libmagic.
