The latest version of the Facebook PHP SDK wont work with the above examples without the following update to the code.

class Facebook {
...
*Line #539*
protected function makeRequest($url, $params, $ch=null) {
if (!$ch) {
  $ch = curl_init();
}

if( isset($params['doMultiPart']) ) {
    $doMultiPart= true;
    unset($params['doMultiPart']);
} else {
    $doMultiPart= false;
}

$opts = self::$CURL_OPTS;
$opts[CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS] = $doMultiPart ? $params : http_build_query($params, null, '&');
...

Basically the problem is that the PHP SDK uses "curl_setopt_array" which if you pass it a url encoded string as the option value it will pass the data as application/x-www-form-urlencoded when what you really want is multipart/form-data; to do this we simply switch to passing in the array of options if we have a param of doMultiPart in the params array.

This was a quick hack I put together to get something working, probably need to review the code to make sure it doesnt break anything else you are doing. Otherwise enjoy.
