Indeed ;) The plan from my perspective was that the liblwgeom version 
should always match that of the PostGIS release to ensure that multiple 
versions of PostGIS can still exist happily together on the same box. 
It's more a facility to share between our own utilities (reducing 
executable sizes) and for happy hackers rather than a formal development 
API.

So the actual bug is that the build system is choosing the pre-installed 
system header rather than the locally-generated header at compile time - 
perhaps the Makefile is missing a dependency somewhere?


ATB,

Mark.
