 When you have a fresh MS install with no uploads directory set up for the
 main site, according to the following logic in `wp-
 includes/functions.php`:

 {{{

 2129         if ( empty($upload_path) ) {
 2130                 $dir = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/uploads';
 2131         } else {
 2132                 $dir = $upload_path;
 2133                 if ( 'wp-content/uploads' == $upload_path ) {
 2134                         $dir = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/uploads';
 2135                         $main_override = defined( 'MULTISITE' ) &&
 is_main_site();
 2136                 } elseif ( 0 !== strpos($dir, ABSPATH) ) {
 2137                         // $dir is absolute, $upload_path is (maybe)
 relative to ABSPATH
 2138                         $dir = path_join( ABSPATH, $dir );
 2139                 }
 2140         }
 }}}

 The uploads directory is set to `wp-content/uploads` with no way of
 changing it.  This differs from the other, non-main sites.

 Since the main site is using the uploads directory, it should have the
 uploads directory setting fields available to change it, just like non-MS
 WP.  Hence patch allows the main site to change the uploads directory just
 like non-MS WP.
