These can be easily emulated using PHP like
if (!function_exists("is_binary")) {
function is_binary($s) { return is_string($s); }
}
> file_put_contents(FILE_BINARY)
Would a const FILE_BINARY = 0; be enough or would that break the
function in some way (didn't check it)

as long as such an emulation is possible I'd prefer putting them in a
compatibility layer (like PEAR PHP_Compat) using PHP instead of putting
"useless" (mind the quotes ...) functions into PHP.
Stuff like the b prefix or (binary) casts are different as they can't be
emulated using userland stuff.
