This sounds specific to magic.  We might be able to help with netlist output
for magic, but most on this list don't have a running copy of magic to refer to.
I don't think the two or so chip designers here use magic.

   What do folks use for ASIC layout here?
   I do have gnetlist producing the .mag and .net files for magic.  I
   can't say I am wild about using guile.  It would be nice to have the
   option to use ruby or some other scripting language.

I do schematic-level ASIC design and simulation for Osaka University with 
gEDA/ngspice, but I don't do layout. Another company (in Japan) does that. I 
believe they use Mentor Graphics tools for layout. Their tools operate on 
stripped-down SPICE files, easy to export from gEDA. I get back monstrous SPICE 
files extracted from the layout to use for verification.
