Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 11276.2.diff isn't breaking uploads or media on my localhost install, with
 the settings stored as wp-content/uploads or as an absolute dir.

 It reveals the true dir when viewing settings / misc. I suppose it's the
 desired behavior if it can lead users with the problem to a faster
 resolution in forums.

 Nonetheless, I doubt it'll hurt much if we automatically fix absolute
 paths during the WP 2.9 upgrade: it's a pain to resolve those things when
 one changes hosts.
