Comment:

 So, it fails projecting a point on latitude -89.999999999 (9 decimal
 digits) but has no problems with -89.99999999 (8 decimal digits). I wonder
 what would a value to clip to...

 Anyway, I get same behavior with postgis 1.5 and 1.4, so not a regression
 of any kind.
 Just the confusing error message which was fixed with r9507
