Comment (by kinggmobb):

 I was prepping to file a bug upstream, but then I took a closer look at
 the plupload and moxie repos.

 I ran a git bisect, and turns out, the bug was silently introduced, and
 then inadvertently fixed, 7 years ago. WordPress is just using an ancient
 version of moxie.js from that time window. (There's a reference to the
 message I saw in https://github.com/moxiecode/moxie/issues/144, but I
 don't think anyone realized the error at the time.)

 The issue was fixed right before moxie v1.5.0, in commit
 b9f329e1add1e19752263fe62a6b7d993bbd1906.

 I think if WP upgrades to a moxie version from v1.5.0 on, it should fix
 the problem. Alternatively, my patch is trivial if you don't feel like
 upgrading moxie.js.
