Comment(by robe):

 Same issue on my

 {{{
 POSTGIS="2.2.0dev r13129" GEOS="3.5.0dev-CAPI-1.9.0 r4034" PROJ="Rel.
 4.8.0, 6 March 2012" GDAL="GDAL 1.11.1, released 2014/09/24"
 LIBXML="2.7.8" LIBJSON="0.12" RASTER
 }}}

 I think it IS changing data as improbable as that seems.  To test, I shut
 down my PostgreSQL service and restarted it and reran the ST_Astext and
 the same changed value showed.
