This is already supposed to be resolved[1] as of PHP 5.4.0.  The
docs need to be updated, though.

Log: Fix bug #50684 (max_file_uploads can't be changed from .htaccess (or ini_set)) by changing
the documentation to reflect max_file_uploads being PHP_INI_SYSTEM, not PHP_INI_ALL as previously
documented.

So why the f*** was and still is this closed??

ini_set would never work because file uploads happen before the PHP script is 
executed, so by the time you call ini_set() it would be too late.

But you are right about .htaccess, I think. We probably should allow this setting 
to be changed there. It is always a tricky balance when it comes to security-
related settings. In some environments you want to lock down the security-related 
settings in a single place and not allow individual users/apps to override these, 
and in other environments you want to let users/apps have more rope.

How do you close this bug without adding the posibility of changing the
parameter value through ini_set and .htaccess? This has to be the most retarded
idea a PHP dev has had since the "magic quotes" epic fiasco, breaking lots of
flawlessly and security-proof code working after a PHP version update, without
any warning (not even a Notice).

Also jani@php.net I've seen you answer in 3 different bugs in a way that makes
it seem like this won't be ever addressed. I can understand it was your
"brilliant" idea to implement this, but a bit of humility and acceptance of
errors would be really appreciated.

And sorry if someone is offended by the 'tone' of this message but when you have
to spend 3 days reviewing _ALL_ the projectes using the CMS you developed, in a
lot of different servers because, you know they'll stop working when PHP version
is updated, due to a "great idea" (not really), well your mood goes down real
quick.
