Since everybody's so frustrated about this, I'm going to go ahead and
force the issue with the upload server. I'll be disabling uploads and
turning off the
upload.wikimedia.org web server for a few hours so we
can get everything moved over and totally copied once and for all.
Alas this'll mean not seeing images for a few hours, but it should
finally be nicer after this. :D
