Comment:

 Hmm I can't trigger this error on my Ubuntu server running PostGIS 2.1.5:


 {{{
 POSTGIS="2.1.5 r13152" GEOS="3.4.2-CAPI-1.8.2 r3921" PROJ="Rel. 4.8.0, 6
 March 2012" GDAL="GDAL 1.11.2, released 2015/02/10" LIBXML="2.9.2"
 LIBJSON="UNKNOWN" RASTER

 PostgreSQL 9.4.4 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Ubuntu
 4.9.2-10ubuntu13) 4.9.2, 64-bit
 }}}

 I think similar issues like this were fixed in PostGIS 2.1.8 so I would
 suggest upgrading and see if you get the same error.

 On my PostGIS 2.2.0 and 2.1.8 installs (and my 2.1.5 ubuntu install), I
 just get error:


 {{{
 ERROR:  syntax error at or near "​"
 LINE 1: ...int","crs":{"type":""},"coordinates":[-97.3361,37.6914]}');
 }}}

 So it could be an issue too with libjson library being used as well which
 might explain why the error doesn't happen on my 2.1.5.  Or the code you
 posted is the the one crashing.
