Description:
------------
To wit: a multidimensional upload will appear in $_FILES, but not in $_POST.  This seems vaguely reminiscent of #19848, but is not a dupe.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<html>
    <head>
   </head>
   <body>
        <form action="test.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
            <input type="file" name="label[new_pics][]" /><br />
            <input type="file" name="label[new_pics][]" /><br />
            <input type="file" name="label[new_pics][]" /><br />

            <input type="submit" />
        </form>
   </body>
</html>

-------------
<?php
// test.php
print_r($_REQUEST);
print_r($_POST);
print_r($_FILES);

Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
    [label] => Array
        (
            [new_pics] => Array
                (
                    [0] => background.jpg
                    [1] => techno.png
                    [2] => picture.gif
                )
        )
)
Array

                    [1] => techno.png
                    [2] => picture.gif
                )
        )

Old bug report is old.

I don't remember what PHP 5.2 was doing, but currently no file upload data goes in $_POST. It's only $_FILES.
