The current 2.4 and 2.5 docs mention that the xmlrpclib
has a function
called binary which converts any python value to a
Binary object.

However, this function does not exist in either 2.4.3
or 2.5.

The Binary constructor accepts a data parameter, so I
would say just
remove mention of the binary function from the docs and
leave the
implementation as-is.
