Comment:

 OK, I've committed a fix for this, but it has raised again for me just how
 delicate my testing of edge intersection is (I keep jiggling the tolerance
 for the test tighter and looser around a sweet spot, it is *not*
 numerically robust, and eventually we'll find a case which doesn't work
 within the tolerance ranges required by all the other unit tests (thank
 goodness for unit tests).
