Deal with NetBSD byte-swapped a.out magic when checking the MID to exclude

Browse Source 
linux binaries from the *BSD a.out loader. This is a hack, but lets me run
static NetBSD binaries.  Dynamic binaries are a much bigger problem because
the shared libraries would conflict with our native libraries, so a
/compat/netbsd alternate namespace and translation would be needed.
