Comment:

 Weird, I would have expected a srid only in the first element, not in the
 outer container too.
 Anyway you can see the problem is that the element of a collection has a
 srid value.

 Ah, yes, probably ST_AsText, being an OGC function, stripped the SRID to
 avoid having it in the output. Most likely ST_AsEWKT will show the SRID in
 both the container _and_ the interior.

 The bug is still in whatever constructed that geometry (ST_Union in this
 case).
