In JS console:

SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'readAsBinaryString'
load.php, line 57 character 397

ho-ho, suspicious...

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/4924 works around this for Special:Upload by
using readAsArrayBuffer and converting the buffer to a binary string (which the
jpeg metadata library wants).

Better fix would be to update the metadata library to accept array buffers as
well.

Also needs fixing in UploadWizard.

Merged by Kaldari, tested and verified, resolving as fixed.
