Comment (by mloskot):

 The difference (WKT Raster Windows build by Regina from 2009-08-10
 17:41:12) is as follows:

  * SELECT ST_AsText(st_raster_envelope(rast)) FROM mytable
 {{{
 POLYGON((-90 90,-72 90,-72 72,-90 72,-90 90))
 }}}

  * SELECT ST_AsText(st_raster_to_box2d(rast)) FROM mytable
 {{{
 POLYGON((-90 72,-90 90,-72 90,-72 72,-90 72))
 }}}

 The two geometries are almost identical. The only difference is which is
 the first vertex, upper left vs lower left corner.

 What does the "should return two identical lines" mean? Which line is the
 one that should be returned?
