The upload module stores these two particular variables as a number of
megabytes so we need to multiply by 1024^2 as happens elsewhere for
these messages. Seeing that something exceeeds a 1 byte quota is a bit
disconcerting when you have 1 MB.


I made the patch against HEAD, but the problem does exist in 4.6.x.

Can't we store the size in bytes instead of having to multiply with
'1024 * 1024' over and over again?
