 Hi,

 I'm trying to run postgis 2.1.3 on fedora 20, 2 regression tests fail, one
 of them is regress_index_nulls, I've found the following to be happening
 in reference to the lower case 'point' as referenced in the
 regress_index_nulls.sql test case:

 [postgres at localhost regress]$ psql
 psql (9.3.4)
 Type "help" for help.

 postgres=# select 'POINT(0 0)'::geography;
                      geography
 ----------------------------------------------------
  0101000020E610000000000000000000000000000000000000
 (1 row)

 postgres=# select 'point(0 0)'::geography;
 ERROR:  parse error - invalid geometry
 LINE 1: select 'point(0 0)'::geography;
                ^
 HINT:  "po" <-- parse error at position 2 within geometry
 postgres=# select postgis_v

 postgres=# select postgis_full_version();
 NOTICE:  Function postgis_topology_scripts_installed() not found. Is
 topology support enabled and topology.sql installed?

  POSTGIS="2.1.3 r12547" GEOS="3.4.2-CAPI-1.8.2 r3921" PROJ="Rel. 4.8.0, 6

  2012" GDAL="GDAL 1.11.0, released 2014/04/16" LIBXML="2.9.1" RASTER
 (1 row)

 postgres=#


 For some reason I can't figure out, when using the lower case spelling of
 'point', it fails, upper case works as expected.

 this is on postgres 9.3.4.

 thanks
