#627: PostGIS/PostgreSQL process terminates on invalid geometry
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  hopfgartner  |       Owner:  pramsey      
     Type:  defect       |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  medium       |   Milestone:  PostGIS 1.5.3
Component:  postgis      |     Version:  1.5.X        
 Keywords:               |

 On:
 {{{
 SELECT St_Buffer('0101000020E8640000000000000000F8FF000000000000F8FF',
 50);
 }}}

 the PostgreSQL/PostGIS process leaves with:

 {{{
 server closed the connection unexpectedly
         This probably means the server terminated abnormally
         before or while processing the request.
 The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.
 }}}

 The text representation of this geometry is {{{POINT(nan nan)}}}


 This happens with:

  * POSTGIS="1.5.1" GEOS="3.2.2-CAPI-1.6.2"
  * POSTGIS="1.3.5" GEOS="3.0.1-CAPI-1.4.2"
  * POSTGIS="2.0.0SVN" GEOS="3.3.0-CAPI-1.7.0", as of 2010-10-14
