That's a binary XOR, not a boolean XOR. I actually just wrote a binaryXOR function last week (it's on my blog: barneyb.com) while I was .... bum-ba-da-bum ... doing some encryption stuff. Specifically reverse engineering cfusion_encrypt and cfusion_decrypt into CFML UDFs (also available on my blog).
