Comment (by Lars Aksel Opsahl):

 Thanks a lot for fixing/sorting out related issue 5401 and this one. It's
 so nice to use open-source , we talk about hours before things are being
 picked up. The Postgis Team is really doing a great job. Thanks.

 May concern was that we could get this big changes with out any warnings,
 but that was related to old code kicking and is now fixed and should not
 happen again and there is a test added to secure that also as understand
 it.

 As I also understand it now an exception will be thrown if the input do
 change to much and then we will not see results like we did in my real
 world cases any more ?

 With flag that we talk about here, I was hopping to secure that data used
 in our system are not "bad" in better way and instead expose all problem
 "areas", when it was used in our computations instead of silently try to
 fix this problem areas under the hood.

 But if I read you correctly this is not straight forward to set up and/or
 use in a good way.
