Comment (by nacin):

 This is fun. So:
  * Uploading a theme (and probably a plugin) doesn't actually set a mime
 type. This appears broken in general, not just when you upload a theme a
 second time. I only needed to upload it once to trigger it.
  * wp_count_attachments() should ignore empty mime types to avoid
 returning an object with an invalid member name.
  * This notice doesn't actually occur until we attempt to access the
 member name, in this case by iterating over it with a foreach.

 I am perfectly fine with papering over this for now by converting it back
 to an array. I just wanted to make sure I understood what was going on.
