It looks like the ticket hung on naming issue:
do people prefer ST_OffsetCurveRight/ST_OffsetCurveLeft
or ST_OffsetCurve(geom, ['right'|'left']) ?

The patch implements the latter.

This is important, as the testcase and documentation will need to
be produced using the agreed-on syntax...

On a side-note, the C-level functions should likely have an ST_
prefix too, and be CamelCased as documented..
