Comment (by mdavis):

 Replying to [comment:9 dbaston]:
 > I can't reproduce a crash here. When running the attached example under
 limited memory (after plugging in ERROR and NOTICE handlers to
 `initGEOS`), the ERROR handler is called with the text "std::bad_alloc".

 Interesting.  The OP says he encountered this in PostGIS - but wouldn't
 PostGIS have set those handlers as well?

 In any case, we really want to try and return an actual result, rather
 than a crash or an error.
