Hei,
I committed a patch to make ord() work on IS_BINARY strings earlier
today (http://news.php.net/php.cvs/33862). Andrei doesn't like that
because the description in the docs says "ord -- Return ASCII value of
character", which in his opinion doesn't make much sense for binary
strings. Other then ord(), there is no suitable function to show the
ordinal value of a byte in a IS_BINARY string though. Comments?
