[geos-devel] mapserver crash on exit, with svn head geos

[David Fuhry]

With GEOS from svn, mapserver crashes on calling exit(), as GEOS 
destroys the static string defined in GEOS' WKBReader.cpp:

string WKBReader::BAD_GEOM_TYPE_MSG = "bad geometry type encountered in ";

It generally results in a corrupt image, as some glibc error messages 
(the usual double-free stuff, I think; forgot to capture) are dumped in 
the middle of the image output.  I'm not sure of the ideal fix. 
Inlining the few uses of BAD_GEOM_TYPE_MSG with the literal c-string 
text works.
