 I was willing to dismiss this as something I was doing wrong during
 compile, when I tried compiling PostGIS 1.5 under my mingw64 and
 discovered that it did not exhibit the same screwy behavior.  So now I'm
 not sure where the error is.

 The PostGIS 1.5 64-bit compiled version doesn't have issue with ST_AsText.
 Here is an an example:

 {{{
 SELECT ST_AsText(ST_Buffer(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(1
 2)',4326),1,'quad_segs=3'));

 }}}

 -- under PostGIS 1.5 64-bit mingw64

 {{{

 }}}

 Note the ,s with no numbers.

 I think the underlying geometry is fine, because if I do an ST_AsGML (my
 32-bit and 64-bit installs of PostGIS 2.0.0 agree)
