[wp-testers] upload_url_path is always overwritten in function wp_upload_dir

[Jim McQuillan]

I was checking up on my original submission below, and I see that it has
been cross-referenced with bug #12549 which is marked as a blocker for 3.0.

So, I wanted to see if #12549 (Incorrect file URL for existing uploaded
images) is going to be fixed before the 3.0 release.

Thanks!
