non-recoverable error when renewing membership due to file upload field

This error shows up when selecting renew on a membership through their contact record. When I first attempted to reproduce this on the demo server there were no errors showing up. I then tried to remove all my "File" custom data fields from my civicrm install and the error went away. So to verify this is in fact a bug I added a custom data field group called "File Upload Test Data" and added one field called "My Photo" of type "File" to the demo server. Now when I try to renew a membership for the demo user I get the following error. It appears it is checking for a form field type of file but not finding it.
