#3468: ST_GeogFromText should swap longitude when latitude crosses 90 deg
---------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  tomvantilburg  |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  defect         |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium         |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.2.2
Component:  postgis        |    Version:  2.2.x
 Keywords:                 |
---------------------------+---------------------------
 ST_GeogFromText calculates back from 90 (92 becomes 88 etc.) when entering
 a latitude higher than 90. This would make (a bit of) sense if the
 longitude would be swapped by 180 deg, (going over the pole) but it
 doesn't.
