Problem in uploading a large file when LimitRequestBody set in the httpd.conf 
file

You'd have to verify this with a tusc trace, but I suspect that the child
process got zapped with SIGALRM because it was taking too darn long to soak up
the request body.  After the SIGALRM, the connection gets closed by Apache
before the client has necessarily seen the 413 response, so the browser puts up
some sort of error.

not so clear that soaking up the whole request body forever and ever is really
the right thing to do just in case the user is still awake when the file is
through getting uploaded to the bitbucket, though I understand that the message
in the browser after the timeout/dropped-connection isn't so helpful either

the real fix is for the browser to implement the "Expect: 100-Continue"
protocol, let Apache respond "no way" before starting the upload, and things
proceed normally; the unlimited-in-size request body doesn't have to get
transferred over the network before the browser finally sees the error response
