The overzealous check appears to be in MimeMagic::doGuessMimeType().  It
appears that the check, as currently coded, will have a false positive rate of
slightly over 1 in 4096 files, assuming a random distribution of octets (which
should be reasonable for compressed file formats like JPEG, PNG or Ogg).
