Arrgh! I found the problem – I’m trying to restrict uploads to the admin login, but if I enter that ID in the allowed users setting, it DENIES admin that right.
What am I doing wrong?
You are doing nothing wrong. That’s a problem which already has been fixed. You might want to take a look at the sourceforge.net patch tracker for a fix, and this thread for a discussion.

Stupid n00b question – how do I apply the patch?
Thanks!
If you have a unix-style system and the command “patch”, you go like this:
– make a backup of your complete wordpress directory
– download patch and put it in your wordpress directory
– change to the wp-directory and run the command “patch -p1 < wp-0.72_upload-type-and-user.patch” (without the quotes) from there
– that should do it
If you have problems with this, or if you don’t have a unix-style system, let me know and I’ll upload the patched files as an archive to the patch tracker in addition.

No, I’m not running it on a *nix box. It’s Netware 6 Apache/1.3.27, PHP/4.2.4-dev, and MYSQL MySQL 4.0.12
I uploaded the ready-patchedfiles to the tracker. Try these, they should work for you as long as you have a plain wp-0.72 gold installation.
I applied this install but it still will not bring up the option to upload files..any suggestions?
@mrlarter: Just to be sure: you did enable the file upload function in the settings, yes?
I applied the patch as well, and uploads are still broken for me. Though I get the option to upload files it doesn’t work. I get two warning messages and a notification that the file was uploaded successfully. However, no file shows up. Yes, it has been properly CHMODed. File upload in b2 worked fine . . .
