Description changed by robe:

Old description:

> 1,-72.2 42.755 1,-72.2 42.755 0,-72.2 41.755 0)),((-72.2 41.755 0,-72.2
> 42.755 0,-71.2 42.755 0,-71.2 41.755 0,-72.2 41.755 0)))'::geometry,3);
> }}}

New description:

 {{{
 SELECT ST_SubDivide('POLYHEDRALSURFACE Z (((-72.2 41.755 0,-72.2 41.755
 1,-72.2 42.755 1,-72.2 42.755 0,-72.2 41.755 0)),((-72.2 41.755 0,-72.2
 42.755 0,-71.2 42.755 0,-71.2 41.755 0,-72.2 41.755 0)))'::geometry,3);
 }}}

 Is this even supposed to work with polyhedrasurfaces.  If I give a number
 like 5, doesn't crash, but gives this error


 {{{
 SELECT ST_SubDivide('POLYHEDRALSURFACE Z (((-72.2 41.755 0,-72.2 41.755
 1,-72.2 42.755 1,-72.2 42.755 0,-72.2 41.755 0)),((-72.2 41.755 0,-72.2
 42.755 0,-71.2 42.755 0,-71.2 41.755 0,-72.2 41.755 0)))'::geometry,5);

 -- ERROR:  Error performing rectangular clipping:
 IllegalArgumentException: Invalid number of points in LinearRing found 3 -
 must be 0 or >= 4
 }}}

 So it's trying, whether it should or not is another question
