@rhsoft PHP uses a patched libmagic primarily to a) integrate with PHP filesystem APIs, including
things like stream wrappers, but more importantly also open_basedir restrictions etc and b) to use
our per-request allocator. If you're interested in what the differences are, have a look at https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/master/ext/fileinfo/libmagic.patch.

as said i build PHP from the unpatched upstream sources, so the libmagic is bundeled and that exists
from 5.5.13 until 5.6.11 while the file-package from Fedora (cli command file) recognizes it
correctly, hence i even wrote admin scripts calling the file-cli from PHP
the problem is that at least for Fedora the distributions file-package becomes often updates in case
of bugs and wrong recognized samples and PHP is always behind :-(

Thanks for making the file available, and sorry for the bad
pointer to picpaste.com.
Anyhow, a quick check:
cmb@debian64:~$ file -b --mime-type 67516.gif
application/octet-stream
cmb@debian64:~$ dpkg -s file
Package: file
Status: install ok installed
Priority: standard
Section: utils
Installed-Size: 119
Maintainer: Christoph Biedl <debian.axhn@manchmal.in-ulm.de>
Architecture: amd64
Multi-Arch: foreign
Version: 1:5.22+15-2
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libmagic1 (= 1:5.22+15-2), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4)
Description: Determines file type using "magic" numbers
File tests each argument in an attempt to classify it. There are
three sets of tests, performed in this order: filesystem tests,
magic number tests, and language tests. The first test that
succeeds causes the file type to be printed.

Which version of file/libmagic do you use?

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.
