No, but then again Igor you are way smarter then i am. NginX is a fantastic piece of work. Like i said earlier i just skipped that "rule" and more specific matches stuck in my head. how i thought about it

location ~ "^/upload/\.php$" would be more exact then
location ~ "\.php$" since more parts are being explicitly matched.
