 Ubuntu 12.04 x64, PostgreSQL 9.2.2, PostGIS r10800

 When I try to segmentize a geography which has redundant coordinates,
 Postgres hangs entirely:

 {{{
 select St_Segmentize(ST_GeographyFromText('LINESTRING(-89.3000030518
 28.2000007629,-89.1999969482 89.1999969482,-89.1999969482
 89.1999969482)'), 10000);
 }}}

 If I try the same thing on a geometry, the issue is caught and
 ST_Segmentize refuses to run:

 {{{
 select St_Segmentize(ST_GeographyFromText('LINESTRING(-89.3000030518
 28.2000007629,-89.1999969482 89.1999969482,-89.1999969482
 89.1999969482)'::geometry), 10000);
 ERROR:  parse error - invalid geometry
 HINT:  "010200000003000000990B" <-- parse error at position 22 within
 geometry
 }}}

 Let me know if I can provide any further details.
