Yeah, that's rather unhelpful behavior. See
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13812 (which I'm
re-adding to my to-do list).
$wgUploadPath = true; ///< defaults to
"{$wgScriptPath}/images"
$wgUploadDirectory = true; ///< defaults to "{$IP}/images"
$wgUploadPath and $wgUploadDirectory default to false, which allows
them to be initialized in Setup.php; setting them to true is probably
causing the odd behavior. You actually don't need to set them at all
if you just want the defaults, so you should remove those two lines
from LocalSettings.php.
