Gif filter issue

[Stephan Hegel <stephan hegel gmx de>]

Hi,

By chance I've noticed that the indexer hangs when meeting corrupted
gif files, e.g. an empty file with the extension "gif":

[mahes]/home/steve/tmp: touch aaa.gif

[mahes]/home/steve/tmp: test-mime aaa.gif
Test Failed: message/news is not subclass of message/*
Test Failed: message/news is not subclass of text/*
Test Failed: text/* is subclass of text/plain
File "aaa.gif" has a mime-type of image/gif

[mahes]/home/steve/tmp: beagle-extract-content aaa.gif
Filename: file:///home/steve/tmp/aaa.gif
Debug: Loaded 43 filters from /usr/local/lib/beagle/Filters/Filters.dll
...
... <--- just hanging here and creating lotsa cpu load.


BTW, an external filter like "exiftools" produces the following output:

[mahes]/home/steve/tmp: beagle-extract-content aaa.gif
Filename: file:///home/steve/tmp/aaa.gif
Debug: Loaded 43 filters from /usr/local/lib/beagle/Filters/Filters.dll
Filter: Beagle.Filters.FilterExternal
MimeType:

Error: Image format error - /home/steve/tmp/aaa.gif
(no content)
(no hot content)

Beagle is CVS fetched on April, 4th.

Kind regards,
   Stephan.
