Description:
------------
For example, please write following html.

"""
<?php
ini_set("memory_limit", "5M");
?>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>sample</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
  Fileļ¼š<br />
  <input type="file" name="upfile" size="30" multiple><br />
  <br />
  <input type="hidden" name="myname" value="vicky">
  <input type="submit" value="upload" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
"""

Next, would you change the php.ini.

"""
php_value upload_max_filesize "5M"
php_value post_max_size "5M"
"""

Are you ready?
Let's upload something binary file from html which you wrote.
When we always judge error or success, we usually use "error" key in $_FILES.
But I found that $_FILES become array of empty , when PHP couldn't upload 'file' in 'PHP 7.1.5'.

I think that it is bug, right?
I want PHP developer team to investigate that.
Thanks.
