Bug description:  PHP error mesage "File not uploaded" is unclear and misleading.

Visit: 
 
http://www.groupit.org/contribute/demonstrationarea/contenttypes/documents/b.21.html

 
On this page there is one required file upload field, and 
a second optional field (for an image that can be 
automatically scaled and placed within the summary of the 
contribution). When a document file is specified, and an 
image is not, the error "File not uploaded" is stored 
within $php_errormsg. Presumably this is because the 
contrib_image variable is not set. Since this is not truly 
an error condition I think PHP should NOT log an error for 
this event. I imagine there are many other PHP-based sites 
with optional file upload fields that are now generating 
spurious error messages to site administrators (grin). 
 
This functionality was not evident in 4.1.2 or earlier 
versions. The $php_errormsg should contain actual errors 
only.  Thanks for your time - and thanks for creating such 
a great development language!
