> Can anyone explain the use of the stream_bucket_* functions at all?

It looks like you use them when writing PHP stream filters. The filter 
mechanism gives you an input and output "bucket" and you transfer bits 
of input to output, performing your filtering on the way.

The page below has sample code and says "you can't just operate on the 
bucket resources directly; instead, you need to call a few helper 
functions to convert the data from a resource to an object that is 
modifiable in PHP.", which sums it up quite nicely I reckon.
