If this were conditional and specifically directed at the flash upload
target file it could be a very nice thing to add to .htaccess where we
can. Here is a first attempt:

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterSelective "REQUEST_URI" "wp-admin/async-upload.php" "allow,nolog"
</IfModule>

Anyone on Apache experiencing HTTP upload errors not resolved by
removing plugins, please add that to your .htaccess file and report
the results here.
