There was a problem hiding this comment.
Shouldn't this move to line 401, before the buffer object (which is no longer being passed), goes through the code to create/change it?

@sam-github I think it's more confusing not only because we don't do that for any other node core API (that I am aware of) but because if you asked for a string, I would never expect a Buffer -- whether there was an error or not. Also, the Buffer is probably useless in most cases since there is usually a reason why a string was requested. |

Even though an Error object is passed to the callback when readFile() fails due to toString() failing, it is a bit strange to still see data passed as the second argument. This commit changes that and only passes the Error object in that case.
