Comment(by strk):

 Uhm, answering myself it seems related to the aim to avoid the scientific
 notation ..

 Anyway this is still a bug. Easier to see it as such:
 {{{
 SELECT ST_AsGeoJSON('POINT(59.99, -59.99)'::geometry);
 {"type":"Point","coordinates":[59.990000000000002,-59.990000000000002]}
 }}}
