If I set $UploadMaxSize = 5000;
then upload a 15,000kb jpg file, it allows it, even though it should
not.

As a test, I modified the $PageUploadFmt variable to include a
statement:
(Max upload size is: $UploadMaxSize), it too is incorrectly reporting
the max size to be 50000 instead of 5000.

 I'm guessing that value of $UploadMaxSize

I'm not sure how this can happen.  I have the $UploadMaxSize set in my
config.php file.  I moved it right near the top of my config.php file
too, thinking maybe order has something to do with it?  I'm not sure
what's going on.

Does order matter?  I think not, since the functions are not actually
called until all the config.php files are processed, so the new value
for $UploadMaxSize should be in effect by that time.

somefile.jpg  I've tried several simple jpg files.
