 Currently, Z-coordinate (3D) geometries are not supported.  However, this
 is highly desirable.

 Also, AutoCAD Map3D 2011 can add PostGIS layers with Z-coordinates, but
 they are misrepresented. For example, a four-sided polygon:

 {{{
 #!sql
 create table test3(gid serial primary key, name text);
 select addgeometrycolumn('public','test3','geometry',26910,'POLYGON',3);
 insert into test3(geometry, name)
 values('SRID=26910;POLYGON((514452.882612015 6252255.92843785
 10.1,514477.777417923 6252277.50262608 11.2,514489.882524277
 6252263.32205739 12.3,514464.987722183 6252241.74786916
 13.3,514452.882612015 6252255.92843785 10.1))', 'A 3D Rectangle')
 }}}

 This appears as a triangle, with the individual XYZ coordinates appearing
 in different X and Y values in AutoCAD 3D.
