Just wanted to follow up...

I gathered up my courage and upgraded MediaWiki.  Backing up, etc. wasn't too hard and I encountered 
no problems.  Debian "backports" had v1.15.1 for the current Debian stable, so I did end up using 
that instead of the MediaWiki sources (didn't want to risk too much :-) ).  That went fine since 
installing just that package required no additional dependencies.

After running the update.php script, uploading image files worked -- without changing anything 
[further] in my LocalSettings.php.  So, it seems you were right...it was either a problem with 
Debian's [older] MediaWiki or something in my settings conflicted with it.

Thank you all for your help!  Perhaps I should have more courage when it comes to deviating from 
Debian stable.  :-)

Ray
