the PHP version don't matter, it happens with 5.5 for over a year as well as with recent 5.6.11
builds for that file and i don't get "Usage of external libmagic isn't possible for
various reasons" while all other software out there can use system libraries

> you can upload the image file to http://picpaste.com/

As @ab has already said, you can upload the image file to
http://picpaste.com/, and of course there are lots of other
similar hosting services. Alternatively, you can make the file
available for download on (one of) your own server(s).

Please change the status of the bug report to "Open", when you're
replying. Otherwise the status will be automatically changed to
"No Feedback" after two weeks.

no feedback was provided?

i said "sadly i don't see here any option to attach the image" in the original report
and a *really* interested developer would have offered to send the file per mail to him - what
feedback do you expect on a bugtracker from the early 1990's with no capabilities?

Usage of external libmagic isn't possible for various reasons, the patched version is tightly
integrated with PHP. 

@spam2, @fayez, which file/PHP versions was used?

@spam2, please post the image you've an issue with to http://picpaste.com/ . You could probably check with bug #68731
whether it's reproducible for you.

Thanks.

i know by myself that it works for most files, but this bugtracker lacks capability to attach the
affected file, 

anyways, if php would use systems file-utilities/libraries the behavior of PHP and other
applications would be indetical and it would not need to carry some MB of redundant data
