Key length

Why does the SRS admin page generate keys that are either 111 or 112 bytes
long?

We're using our own C program to process registrations and are interested in
knowing how Perl handles binary conversion of a 111 byte "hex" key. Does
Perl ignore the missing byte and append a zero?

If not, how does Perl handle the conversion of 2 characters into a byte when
one of the characters is missing?
