Just ran into a similar issue under OSX/Windows. If I tried to stick a ByteArray into a URLVariables, no matter what combination of operations I'd make, somewhere along the line it got converted to a String and thus truncated at the first zero byte (because I assume Flash uses null-terminated strings internally). To fix it, I ended up encoding the data in Base64 before sticking it into the URLVariables, which I think was actually a win over the URL-encoding (e.g. %03%38%99...) anyway. In regards to your POST/GET issue, Flash Player appears to convert empty POSTs to GETs, which would explain why 0 has the first byte (thus a zero-length data) would turn your POST into a GET. Troy.
