 `curl -sv http://example.com/my_api/ -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: multipart
 /form-data'`

 This causes an "500 Internal Server Error", which is supposed to be "400
 Bad Request".

 Traceback with sensitive information removed:

 {{{

   File ".../site-packages/django/core/handlers/wsgi.py", line 111, in

     self._load_post_and_files()

     parser = MultiPartParser(META, post_data, self.upload_handlers,

 __init__
     raise MultiPartParserError('Invalid boundary in multipart: %s' %
 boundary.decode())
 AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'decode'
 }}}

 Possible fix:

 Replace `boundary.decode()` at `django/http/multipartparser.py:72` with
 `force_text(boundary, errors="replace")`
