I'm using postgreSQL 8.0.1 win32 version and whichever postGIS comes
with it, 0.9.1 I think.  My input geometries are multi-part polygons
imported from a shape file.  Every state is its own multi-part poly,
regardless of the number of individual polys, at least as a shape file,
not sure how postGIS handles this.  I'm also not sure what GEOS I'm
using.  Is this an add-on installed separately?

It sounds as a bug to me. Which GEOS version are you using ?
What types are input geometries ?
Which postgis version ? postgresql ?
