Something like this can happen if your apache is configured to use php
as both a handler and an output filter.   From the horde/docs/INSTALL file:

   a. PHP interpretation for files matching "*.php"
 
         AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
                                                                                
   Note: The above instructions may not work if you have specified
         PHP as an output filter with SetOutputFilter directive
         in Apache 2.x versions.  In particular, RedHat 8.0 Apache 2.x
         RPMS have the output filter set, and MUST NOT have the above
         AddType directive added.

Red Hat ships php as a filter via /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf so you can
not add the above AddType or you will have problems, including file upload
problems like you mention.
