   Decodes binary data passed as parameters to a <acronym>UDF</acronym>.
  </para>
  <para>
   You must call this function on parameters passed to your UDF if you need
   them to handle binary data, as the binary encoding employed by PHP will
   obscure the content and of the parameter in its natural, non-coded form.
  </para>
  <para>
   PHP does not perform this encode/decode operation automatically as it would
   severely impact performance if it did.
