      Description

      Tested & fixed version of Lobo's patch from here http://paste2.org/p/1180464 allows instances of multi-record custom fields to be set through API

      http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,17273.0.html

      e.g

      require_once 'api/v2/Contact.php';
      $params = array ( 'contact_id' => 23,
      'custom_23_1' = "first field in set',
      'custom_23_2' = "second field in set',)
      $result = civicrm_contact_add($params);

      Note that the _1 & _2 represent records 2 & 3 in the custom data table that holds custom field 23

      Also note that just passing 'custom_23' = "latest' will add a record to the multi-record field
