Comment(by bnordgren):

 Something is mighty hoakey. I started having similar problems when
 preparing the patch for #1161. As it turns out, whenever I moved a
 function to libpgcommon which needed to be exposed to sql, I started to
 have problems with the regression. I settled on moving only the C
 functions, and not things like:

 {{{
 PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(transform_geom);
 Datum transform_geom(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
 {
 ...
 }
 }}}

 The hoakey part is that `transform_geom` has been moved to libpgcommon in
 my build too, and the regressions pass just fine. Same platform, same
 concept (moving a V1 PG_FUNCTION to libpgcommon from postgis), two
 different results. This seems to be a very strange linker issue. Perhaps
 it would be wiser to keep all the V1 PG functions in `/postgis` or
 `/raster`, and factor out only the C code.

 Besides, we really don't want to expose `transform_geom` to SQL from both
 the postgis and raster modules, I don't think...
