I can comment out the functions in sql.in and the documentation for
the point release, but as it stands they won't be available to anyone
who isn't running geos-svn in any event.

I too would rather have the behavior be "automagic" than do the
three-parameter overload.

Ben, any comments on the performance / implementation aspects?
