 Robustness issues with ST_Line_Locate_Point make it hard to use it for
 noding:

 {{{
 =# with i as ( select
 '0102000000020000000000000000000000000000000000084000000000000034400000000000001040'::geometry
 as g ) select st_astext(g), st_line_locate_point(g, st_endpoint(g)) = 1
 from i;
       st_astext       | ?column?
 ----------------------+----------
  LINESTRING(0 3,20 4) | f
 (1 row)
 }}}

 This is on a 32bit system with PostGIS trunk.
