This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Provided example of using php://stdin and note re: Changed behavior

it.

read PUT at present)

Making this a Documentation Problem; I can't find any code
that sets PHP_UPLOADED_FILE_NAME, PHP_PUT_FILENAME or
other variations, so it seems that the docs at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.put-method.php
are just plain wrong.
However, it does seem that fopen("php://stdin", "rb") will
allow access to that data (but I haven't tried to verify this).

Sounds like the data is ending up coming from stdin;
try the following code:

$data = fopen("php://stdin", "rb");
$destfile = fopen("file_to_overwrite", "wb");
while(!feof($data)) {
   $chunk = fread($data, 4096);
   fwrite($destfile, $chunk);
}
fclose($destfile);
fclose($data);

This doesn't explain why it doesn't behave as documented,
but should be enough to get you going.

PUT method is used for publishing from HTML editors.
But apache brings the data to the script to the stdin stream.
So, PHP does not accept any data. And, also, does not set up 
any variable on that score.
