 Removing the following lines from the function ''mw_newMediaObject'' file
 ''class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php'' solves the problem:

 {{{
 $filename = preg_replace('/^wpid\d+-/', '', $name);
 $name = "wpid{$old_file->ID}-{$filename}";
 }}}

 Why are these lines there anyway? overwrite is overwrite.

 This, presumably, bug exists in WP 3.1 too.
