 Steps to replicate:

 - Create a fresh WordPress Multisite
 - Go to My Sites > Network Admin > Settings
 - Check the "Upload file types" option. "ttf" is not allowed there by
 default.
 - Add "ttf" in that input field, Save.

 Now try uploading a ttf file through the native media uploader. WordPress
 still won't allow uploading .ttf files.

 Workaround:
 - Add the following line in wp-config.php file and save:
 {{{#!php
 <?php
 define('ALLOW_UNFILTERED_UPLOADS', true);
 }}}

 Now you can upload .ttf files.

 - Not only that, now you can upload files which have type not in the
 "Upload file types" settings.

 Summary: "Upload file types" declarations are not working. The workaround
 is not a fix because it allows *all* extensions. Sorry if I'm doing, but
 am I missing anything?
