Comment:

 Yeah, that's because the old 0.9 installations don't have the separate
 EWKT/EWKB functions.

 I've committed the patch to 1.5 branch at r5989 and trunk at r5990. Paul,
 I'll leave it you to remove this functionality later as a separate task on
 trunk, although I also have used it on occasions to debug shapefile
 content. Maybe we should just bring it up to date, i.e. using the correct
 EWKT functions, since the code overhead from this now really small given
 that liblwgeom does all the magic.
