I use LPeg to parse CGI data and while my code isn't in a form to be
published quite yet [1], I do know that I can handle binary data just fine.
The main part of the code that will probably help you the most is:
local boundary = lpeg.P("--" .. separator)
local hdrs = core.parse_headers(mime._HEADERS,contentdisp._HEADERS)
local body = lpeg.C((lpeg.P(1) - boundary)^0)
local section = boundary
* core.CRLF
* lpeg.Ct(lpeg.Cg(hdrs,"headers") * lpeg.Cg(body,"body"))
local sections = lpeg.Ct(section^1) * boundary * lpeg.P"--" * core.CRLF
local tmp = sections:match(data)
hdrs just parses the MIME headers for each section, body is what parses the
actual body of each section and is text/binary agnostic.

[1] It's 741 lines of Lua/LPeg code just to parse multipart/form-data
and what I have works for my usecase; I can't guarentee it will work
for all websites.
