#3419: ST_CurveToLine not behaving as expected on 3 point circle

Comment (by dbaston):
Are you using QGIS by chance? It looks to me like QGIS is incorrectly
rendering {{{CIRCULARSTRING ( -1 0, 0 0, -1 0 )}}} . It should look like
the ST_CurveToLine result but instead passes through the point (1,0).
Interestingly, Microsoft considers the use of a three-point CIRCULARSTRING
to define a circle invalid:
