Comment (by robe):

 Mark,

 Sorry I misspoke a little bit.  I think it may be fine.  I do get a notice
 but no error.  So I get a notice that says

 NOTICE:  TopologyException: found non-noded intersection between 779062
 2.92623e+06, 779069 2.92622e+06 and 779072 2.92622e+06, 778970 2.92625e+06
 779068 2.92622e+06
 (but forgot to switch to the notice tab of PgAdmin to see)

 In the old model on 1.3 I would get a notice saying GEOS topological
 exception accompanied with a ERROR: GEOS union() threw an error!

 In the PostGIS 1.4b1 I would get an error saying returned null geometry in
 addition to the topological notice.
 In this patch I just get the topological notice -- no error which hmm in
 some cases I like better.

 So I guess I'm not sure what to consider this.  It is slightly different
 behavior, but perhaps acceptable.

 I'll attach the file in question.
