 I'm the developer of MarsEdit, a Mac desktop blogging application that
 works with WordPress. When my customers have trouble with the "upload
 image" functionality, the error responses from WordPress are lackluster. I
 tracked this down to a simple failure case in xmlrpc.php where the verbose
 error returned by wp_upload_bits is not being propagated out to the
 response text.

 I'm attaching a proposed diff which addresses this. The diff is against
 /trunk/ as of today, but I would really love to see this integrated into
 the 2.1.x branch, because it will have a major impact on my customers'
 ability to debug MarsEdit interoperability with their WordPress blog.
