     Type:  defect          |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  medium          |   Milestone:  PostGIS 2.0.0
Component:  tiger geocoder  |     Version:  trunk        
 Keywords:                  |  
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Example boroughs of NY.  Tiger just has these as New York , NY.

 This geocodes fast:

 {{{
 select pprint_addy(addy), ST_AsText(geomout), rating FROM geocode('2601
 24TH AVE,  NY 111022337',2);
 }}}

 This geocodes slow and gives wrong answer
 {{{
 select pprint_addy(addy), ST_AsText(geomout), rating FROM geocode('2601
 24TH AVE, ASTORIA, NY 111022337',2);

 }}}
