Description:
------------
This bug was reproduced only in PHP 5.3.3 On PHP 5.2.6 works fine.
If you pass a path to magic file situated in Cent OS in "/usr/share/file/magic" 
to finfo_open, then PHP cannot parse magic file.

Though finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE) without second parameter as magic file path 
works fine. (magic file path is taken from system environment)

Test script:
---------------
$finfo = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE, '/usr/share/file/magic'); 
echo finfo_file($finfo, 'www/images/message-container/info_icon.png');

Expected result:
----------------
image/png

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Notice:  finfo_open(): Warning: description `8-bit ISDN mu-law compressed 
(CCITT G.721 ADPCM voice data enco' truncated in /home/blackjack/www/test.php on

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

In PHP 5.3 the magic file is built-in into PHP and that is what should be used. 
the magic file found on the system may not always be what libmagic expects, hence 
the error.
