Comment:

 Thanks for the bug report maaarghk! I verified this issue, and also
 noticed that setting upload_max_filesize to 0 has the same result so it
 would be worth checking that value as well.  If both are zero the proposed
 patch will fail.

 Since the underlying PHP upload limit will be unlimited as intended by
 setting wp_max_upload_size to 0, the real issue is the number WordPress
 displays in the media uploader: ```Maximum upload file size: 0KB.``` (and
 how it treats that limit). This function is used in just a few places in
 core, looking at those would be a good start towards resolving the issue.

 Maaarghk - this would be a great opportunity to try your hand at
