 running the following query


 {{{
 test_postgis=# select ST_AsTWKBagg(st_makepoint(10,10), 10) from
 generate_series(1, 10);
 ERROR:  Output TWKB is not the same size as the allocated buffer
 (precalculated size:31, allocated size:33)
 }}}

 if you use st_astwkb you get

 {{{
 test_postgis=# select ST_AsTWKB(st_makepoint(10,10), 10);
 ERROR:  precision cannot be more than 7
 }}}

 ST_AsTWKBagg method lacks of checking (see attached path) but I'm pretty
 sure that check should be done at encoding level.

 Also I'm not sure why the precision is limited to 7
