As I read through my first email again I see I didn't write clearly
what I intended, sorry for this. I already have an application that
sends binary data with requests like the one mentioned before. Now I
need to parse those requests using PHP. Since the content-type is
multipart/form-data, neither php://input nor $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
works.
That request type was taken from an example from w3c webpage
(http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4), so I
believe there will not be much trouble parsing them.

The fact you're accessing it as an element of $HTTP_POST_VARS (which
should be $_POST anyway) means it's expected to be URL encoded.
Instead set your request Content-Type to octet-stream and grab the whole
post body at once.
eg.
// To send...
$c = stream_context_create(
array(
'http' => array(
'method' => 'post',
'header' => 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream',
'content' => "whatever you want \x00 here"
)
)
);
file_get_contents('http://example.com/foo.php', false, $c);
// To receive
$data = file_get_contents('php://input');
