Summary: Race condition in uploads

Initial Comment:
When multiple users upload media at the same time, it's possible that a race 
conditions occurs. The problem lies with the NextID()-method in the class 
CCTable , which simply gets the next available auto_increment from the 
database. So if two users call NextID() concurrently, they get the same ID 
back, but only one can insert into the database with that ID -- the other user 
gets a MySQL error about a duplicate entry.

We have currently fixed this with a hack, locking the required tables before 
the insert (in cc-uploadapi.php), but really the row should be inserted first, 
the ID gotten with mysql_insert_id, which can then be used in the rest of the 
code.

Regards
