Description:
------------
PHP dies on certain files format while reading exif data with exif_read_date because of some maximum directory nesting level reached. The function should return FALSE and let the program flow further. Otherwice misformated image processing may kill script and break the program logic.

Even if i suppress warnings with @ sign, i still cannot manage to let the program go further after unsuccessfull reading exif data.

broken file:
http://www.hot.ee/camka/orig.phpJCN9Ir.jpg

Tried with 5.1.6, 5.2.0 and latest snapshot of 5.2.1.

P.S. All editors successfully show EXIF data for current file, so maybe it's not misformatted exif data but exif extension cannot process some newer exif formats?

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$z = exif_read_data('orig.phpJCN9Ir.jpg', 'FILE,COMPUTED,IFD0,EXIF', true, false);
var_dump($z);


Expected result:
----------------
[...Errors (see below)...]
FALSE

Actual result:
--------------

Marcus, I've fixed the segfault, but the result EXIF data is still b0rked, please see if we can do anything about it.

[2007-01-09 14:40 UTC] iliaa@php.net

According to a few exif tools this image is either invalid or 
has corrupted exif information.

[2007-01-09 17:50 UTC] helly@php.net

It is broken, still the server should not crash. Fix is coming.
