Comment(by mwtoews):

 This is a duplicate of #466

 The example geometry is ISO WKB. GEOS currently only supports EWKB,
 defined by PostGIS (however, PostGIS seamlessly supports both ISO WKB and
 EWKB formats).

 The EWKB equivalent of the example linestring is:
 {{{
 0102000080030000000000000000000000000000000000F03F0000000000000040000000000000F03F00000000000000400000000000000840000000000000004000000000000008400000000000001040
 }}}

 But yeah, I agree it would be nice to have GEOS catch up to the abilities
 of PostGIS.
