[geos-devel] Re: [GEOS] #356: multilinestring buffer artifacts

[Martin Davis]

Good idea about testing previous versions of JTS.  Unfortunately, this 
fails in both 1.10 and 1.8, so the problem seems to be a long-standing 
one.  Very strange that it works in GEOS, though - but good news for you!

When I have some time I'll work on tracking this down...
