Operating system: Linux
PHP version:      5.2.12
PHP Bug Type:     PHP options/info functions
Bug description:  max_file_uploads counts empty uploads as well

Description:
------------
Setting max_file_uploads limits the number of file input fields on HTML
page instead of limiting the number of actually uploaded files.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<form name="formData" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data"
method="post">
<?php
 for ($i=0;$i<30;$i++)
 {
   echo "File ".($i+1).":<br />\n".
        '<input name="file_'.$i.'" type="file" /><br
/>'."\n";
 };
?>
 <input value="OK!" type="submit" />
</form>

<pre>
<?php var_dump($_FILES) ;?>
</pre>

Expected result:
----------------
When you upload a single file (in the LAST!!! input box) and hit "OK!",
you should see the uploaded file. 

Actual result:
--------------
Instead you see just 20 empty file uploads. (if max_file_uploads is set to
20, as per default)

The max_file_uploads setting should never count empty files.
