Description:
core/file-5.04 doesn't detect PostScript files properly.
Bug is already known upstream http://bugs.gw.com/view.php?id=126

Here is my patch that fixes the issue ;)

Additional info:
* core/file-5.07

Steps to reproduce:
- Install core file/5.07
- Run 'file filtered-test.ps'
- Output is: 'filtered-test.ps: data'

After patching file-5.07 with the attached patch everything is fine:

[a-st@ArchLinux ~]$ file filtered-test.ps
filtered-test.ps: PostScript document text conforming DSC level 3.0, Level 2




   filtered-test.ps (4.6 KiB)
   file-5.07-postscript-detect.p... (0.4 KiB)
