Comment(by robe):

 While I found a couple of tickets and it might have been my
 misunderstanding when Paul made ST_AddMeasure work with multilinestrings.

 At r5420 I made the availability note about Substring. So if its a figment
 of my imagination, probably happened in 1.5.1

 r5168  -  Paul's commit for ST_AddMeasure which change some linear
 referencing stuff

 #1242 - I complaining about how I must have been living in some parallel
 time warp and how the hell did I get this idea

 But of course none of this explains why ST_StartPoint/EndPoint works on my
 1.5 installs.  Does it work on yours strk or you don't have 1.5 installed?

 For the availability note, the only reason I can think of aside from pure
 imagination is that my monkey tests would test for that and perhaps when I
 looked at the results I said "hmm that's interesting this works for
 multilinestrings".  I did hat a lot for the 3D functions since there
 wasn't an easy/fast way to tell if they did or didn't.
