Bug #34764: returns mixed
This bug is bogus IMHO, in section Return values it is mentioned that on failure the function return false. [...]
<methodsynopsis> - <type>array</type><methodname>exif_read_data</methodname> + <type>mixed</type><methodname>exif_read_data</methodname>
    <methodparam><type>string</type><parameter>filename</parameter></methodparam>
    <methodparam choice="opt"><type>string</type><parameter>sections</parameter></methodparam>
    <methodparam choice="opt"><type>bool</type><parameter>arrays</parameter></methodparam>
AFAIR we had the decision, that the prototype should be the "main" type returned on success. "mixed" would be, returns eg. array or string and false on failure. Please revert your commit and mark that bug bogus. Friedhelm
