Will exiftool read from A900 ARW files?

I'm getting the following message and wondering if the new format isn't supported yet.

Warning: Empty PrintIM data

ExifTool reads the A900 ARW files fine.  Sony is just using some
questionable data storage tactics by storing the PrintIM tag when
there is no PrintIM information.  They really should drop the tag
entirely if there is no PrintIM data, however they don't do this
for the A900.

I will downgrade this to a minor warning for the next exiftool release
so you can ignore it if you want with the -m option.
