Description:
------------
The example in the newly revamped manual entry http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.oci-new-descriptor.php
has the line:

  oci_bind_by_name($stmt, ':the_blob', &$lob, -1, OCI_B_BLOB);

Using this syntax I get "Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated"

Looks like it still assumes access to global variables too.
If I may presume, there is a related example that doesn't
have these problems at http://otn.oracle.com/tech/opensource/php/php_troubleshooting_faq.html#uplobs

Passing the variable by [call-time] reference (&$lob) is not needed, I'll fix the example in just a moment.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
