#5991: Distance calculation error for CircularString
---------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: pramsey | Owner: pramsey
Type: defect | Status: assigned
Priority: high | Milestone: PostGIS 3.2.9
Component: postgis | Version: master
Keywords: |
---------------------+---------------------------
The circular arc distance calculation, and a few others, is not properly
updating the DISTPTS state object, and instead just writing their
information into it without checking the current state. Mostly this does
not happen, but where it does, it definitely will be causing wrong answers
to crop up.
