Comment(by nicklas):

 What has happened is that distance calculation before used the global
 function to tell if a geometry is a collection, which included
 polyhedralsurface. Then the polyhedralsurface was taken apart into
 polygons that can be handled.

 In r11219, because of added curve support to the distance calculations
 Paul put a collection test only for the distance calculations, that
 doesn't include polyhedralsurface.

 Is that intentional?

 I haven't studied the details, but if the function that takes apart
 collections isn't changed I guess it is just to add polyhedralsurface in
 the list on collections and it should work as before.
