In the current shipping version, 1.5.2, you can allow uploads of PDF, 
etc. by adding this to your LocalSettings.php:

    $wgCheckFileExtensions = false;
    $wgStrictFileExtensions = false;

Even with these settings, dangerous content such as .php, .js and .html 
files is prevented. Uploaded PDFs work fine, and display inline as the 
PDF logo.
