 I'm not sure if this is my install or something wrong with OpenJump or the
 ST_AsBinary output emitted by PostgreSQL 9.0.  I just tried displaying my
 PostgreSQL 9.0 beta 1 PostGIS 1.5.2SVN install on Windows in OpenJump, and
 I can't.

 It gives the error (Unknown WKB type 48(Parse Exception) when I run this
 query

 {{{
 SELECT ST_AsBinary(geom)
 FROM
 bay_area_cities
 }}}

 It fails for any geometry table in my PostgreSQL 9.0.  However I can
 render the geometries fine in QuantumGIS.

 I can also render my PostgreSQL 8.4 PostGIS 1.5 geometries fine as well in
 OpenJump.

 I'm not sure if this is just a windows thing or something strange that the
 PostgreSQL 9.0 is tacking on to the ST_AsBinary output that is tripping up
 OpenJump.

 Can someone running a Linux PostgreSQL 9.0 beta 1 install test it out.

 As far as I can tell, the geometries are fine.  I can union them, run
 areas etc. So seems like it might be isolated to the output.

 Details of my install (that I built around 2010-05-11) -- the one on
 Windows Experimental page.
