[syslinux] any magic bytes in pxelinux.0 that are useable by /usr/bin/file ?

[jimc at harpo boot]$ file pxelinux.*
pxelinux.0: data
pxelinux.0-3.11: data
pxelinux.cfg: directory
it would be nice if /usr/bin/file recognized pxelinux.0 as something else,
and was a bit more informative; more like these :
ldlinux.bin: x86 boot sector, code offset 0x58
ldlinux_bin.c: ASCII C program text
ldlinux.bss: x86 boot sector, code offset 0x58
ldlinux.sys: data
obviously a trivial issue, but if there are usable magic values,
I'll cobble up a patch to /usr/share/file/magic
aside: 3.20-pre6 works here, w menu.c32, fairly basic setup..
