The file likely dropped out of some manifest somewhere.

Not much to the file:

LIBRPMMISC_0
{
   global:
     fnmatch;
     glob;
     globfree;
     rpmz_*;
     lua*;
     db_env_create_rpmdb;
     db_env_set_func_open_rpmdb;
     db_env_set_func_fsync_rpmdb;
     db_strerror_rpmdb;
     db_create_rpmdb;
     magic_*;
   local:
     file_*;
     db_*;
     *;
};

I've put a copy of ther file at
     ftp://wraptastic.org/pub/jbj/librprmmisc.vers
