Yes, it's supported.
test=# SELECT GeometryType(geom), NDims(geom), ZMFlag(geom) FROM
(SELECT 'POLYGON((0 0 10 1, 0 1 10 2, 1 1 10 3, 1 0 10 4, 0 0
10 1))'::geometry AS geom) AS foo;
summary | ndims | zmflag
---------------------------+-------+--------
| 4 | 3
Polygon[ZMB] with 1 rings
ring 0 has 5 points
(1 row)
How are you retrieving the vertex data?
