[wp-xmlrpc] base64_decode missing in metaWeblog.newMediaObject

[Daniel Jalkut]

What I'm naturally concerned with is, if the bits were not being  
decoded from base64 already, then how on earth are file uploads  
working for all existing clients?

I suspect something else in the chain is magically decoding the  
base64. Possibly a php feature that is just not working right for the  
afflicted user who proposed this patch?
