backend with large geometries.

I'm still nervous about this, since I can't see a reason for this crash to  
happen. A
couple of things:


i) I see different output between 1.3 and trunk for Regina's comment #5

The trunk output contains extra 'L' characters - Olivier, can you comment  
on this?


ii) Relation to architecture / word size

Mike/Regina, which platform and word size are you using? I'm using 64-bit  
and can't
reproduce the crash here. Can you both add to this bug report the output of:

SELECT version(), postgis_full_version();

I'm wondering if it just shows up on 32-bit machines due to the fact that  
64-bit
gives you extra padding for alignment, and so any miscalculations have a  
little more
squeeze room.

Temporarily flicked back to testing.


ATB,

Mark.
