Bug description:finfo_file() returns incorrect mimetype

Description:
------------
This is tested on:
PHP 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.5 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Sep 17 2010
13:49:46)

file_info() is reporting a CSS file has having the mimetype 'text/x-c'
instead of 'text/css'

however, the command line tool 'mimetype' correctly identifies the file
using the same library at '/usr/share/misc/magic'

the file being tested is available at http://horuskol.net/reset.css

Test script:
---------------
PHP:

$finfo = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME);
var_dump($finfo->file('/path/to/file/reset.css'));

$finfo = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME, '/usr/share/misc/magic');
var_dump($finfo->file('/path/to/file/reset.css'));

$finfo = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME, '/usr/share/misc/magic');
var_dump(finfo_file($finfo, '/path/to/file/reset.css'));


Command Line:

mimetype -DM --database /usr/share/misc/magic /path/to/file/reset.css

Expected result:
----------------
string(26) "text/css; charset=us-ascii"

Actual result:
--------------
string(26) "text/x-c; charset=us-ascii"
