I use the libwww Perl package to upload a file. It uses the simple boundary of --000. If I set the MAX_FILE_SIZE to 1000000 PHP reports uploading nothing. But if I change the MAX_FILE_SIZE to 1010101 it works!.

This is what I send to PHP:

--000
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="MAX_FILE_SIZE"

1000000
--000
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="hostname"

myhostname
--000
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="userfile"; filename="motd"
Content-Type: text/plain

Sun Microsystems Inc.   SunOS 5.5       Generic November 1995

--000--

This is what PHP 3.02 returns:
