[geos-devel] [GEOS] #589: GEOSBufferWithStyle with mitre style on LinearRing

[Martin Davis]

Yes, that probably makes more sense.  The only rationale for not doing 
this already is that it will take some work to create offset linework 
that reflects this logic.  (Currently linearrings are handled by the 
same code as linestrings, because when the end cap style is round the 
ends merge seamlessly anyway.  Cap styles were added later, but the 
linearring handling was not enhanced to respect them).
