 I tracked down an issue in the topology test suite (test addpolygon) to
 the following (on ARM, little-endian):

 {{{
 test=# SELECT _ST_Covers('POLYGON((9 28, 16 29, 16 23, 10 23, 9 28),
                                   (15 25, 13 27, 11 24, 15
 25))'::geometry,
                          'POINT(13 25)'::geometry);
  _st_covers
 ------------
  t
 (1 row)
 }}}

 The point in question in excluded by the hole, so _ST_Covers() should
 return false. It works properly if you use a small polygon, instead:

 {{{
 test=# SELECT _ST_Covers('POLYGON((9 28, 16 29, 16 23, 10 23, 9 28),
                                   (15 25, 13 27, 11 24, 15
 25))'::geometry,
                          'POLYGON((13 25, 13.1 25, 13 25.1, 13
 25))'::geometry);
  _st_covers

  f

 }}}
