 Priority:  medium        |   Milestone:  PostGIS 1.5.9
Component:  postgis       |     Version:  1.5.X

Comment(by pramsey):

 Hm, could you now include some SQL that demonstrates the failure
 condition? The SQL at the top of the file returns an intersection, is that
 correct or not? ST_Distance (which calls the same code, ultimately, as
 ST_Intersects) also returns zero distance, and in both the tree and non-
 tree modes:

 {{{
 postgis21=# SELECT _ST_DistanceTree(bg.geog,
 ST_GeogFromText('SRID=4326;POINT(-122.15023 37.905731)')) from bug_repro
 bg;
  _st_distancetree
 ------------------
                 0
 (1 row)

 postgis21=# SELECT ST_Distance(bg.geog,
 ST_GeogFromText('SRID=4326;POINT(-122.15023 37.905731)')) from bug_repro
 bg;
  st_distance
 -------------
            0
 }}}
