[wp-testers] Uploading media problem in WP 2.7 RC1

[Engel Sanchez]

It is 777 already... I even thought it was my server .. and installed a
brand new 2.6.5 and it worked just fine...

What I did notice remembering now is that before I upgraded to 2.7 RC1... I
was having uploading file issues in the site (WP 2.6.5).. the reason to
upgrade was that....

Besides file permissions in the wp folders what can be?

/tmp is 777
