Bug description:
  While upgrading demo.mahara.org from 1.6.4 to 1.7.0, I found the
  upgrade script errored out repeatedly, because in
  artefact/file/db/upgrade.php, in the section for version 2012092400,
  it tried to create a new directory "artefact/file/originals" under the
  dataroot. But, the base "artefact" directory itself didn't exist in my
  dataroot, and mkdir() defaults to NOT creating intermediate
  directories.

  So, I changed mkdir to create the intermediate directories, and then
  the installation went through okay.

  I'm not sure whether this is a problem other people might encounter,
  or whether it's due to the peculiarities of demo.mahara.org (which is
  reset by a script on a daily basis). But it wouldn't hurt to add it.
