Well, just to put some more confusion into this
discussion: I think that these magicfilter scripts (and
most of their source code) should be considered sample
material and go to /usr/doc. The xh files should go
somewhere in /usr/lib (similar to /usr/lib/sendmail.cf
from the sendmail package), and /usr/doc should have some
explanations for the user on how to build their own
filters. These filters clearly are a _script_ in the
"language" magicfilter, and should IMHO go to some place
under /usr/local.
