Comment(by robe):

 my feeling (and I think pramsey agrees) is that #2084 is unlikely an
 endian issue, but might have something to do with architecture that you
 are catching and we are missing in caching logic. If you can run by
 reversing the tests as he says and provide the output would help diagnose
 if its a caching bug. You can also test with one row instead of two and
 see if the singleton answer is the same as the table answer.

 I guess the fact all are running with the same GEOS might suggest that
 GEOS may not be the problem.  Although there have been a few fixes in
 latest GEOS versions that are platform specific. Can't remember what they
 are offhand but I think more likely than an endian issue.

 Any chance you can run with the latest 3.3 release.  GEOS 3.3.3 is pretty
 old. GEOS 3.3.9 is latest of released GEOS 3.3 stable.
