New description:

 {{{
 SELECT ST_OrientedEnvelope(st_geomfromtext('LINESTRING(-99.48710639268086
 34.79029839231914,-99.48370699999998 34.78689899963806,-99.48152167568102

 }}}

 However this one works:


 {{{
 SELECT ST_OrientedEnvelope('LINESTRING(1 2,1.5 2,2 2)'::geometry);
 }}}

 Tested against latest released GEOS and PostGIS develop branch.
