       Binary::createBlock - Create a new, uninitialised block for binary data.

SYNOPSIS

       Binary createBlock( Int bsize )

DESCRIPTION

       Create  a  new,  uninitialised  block for binary data. Remember to use Builtins.byteLength
       (3kaya) instead of Builtins.length (3kaya) if you want to store Strings in these,  as  you
       may have problems with multi-byte characters otherwise.

       The uninitialised contents of this block are not guaranteed to be zeroes.
