[postgis-devel] out_wkt.c - precision

[Paul Ramsey]

The thing I like with significant digits is that it is then the same
behaviour as the PgSQL double output, and could be controlled with the
same GUC

Trimming just the trailing digits is more of a formatting thing. I'd
be interested to hear what others think.
