Hi,

I compared all the functions in postgis 1.3.3 between Ubuntu 8.04 and
Windows XP.
I used this query:
SELECT p.proname, n.nspname, p.pronargs, p.proargnames
FROM pg_proc p
JOIN pg_namespace n ON (p.pronamespace = n.oid)
WHERE n.nspname NOT IN ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema')
ORDER BY n.nspname ASC, p.proname ASC, p.pronargs DESC;

The respective full version strings are:
ubuntu:   POSTGIS="1.3.3" GEOS="2.2.3-CAPI-1.1.1" PROJ="Rel. 4.6.0, 21 Dec
2007" USE_STATS'
windows: POSTGIS="1.3.3" GEOS="3.0.0-CAPI-1.4.1" PROJ="Rel. 4.6.0, 21 Dec
2007" USE_STATS'

Turn out that thare are 5 functions in the windows version that are not in
the ubuntu one:
_st_coveredby
_st_covers
st_coveredby
st_covers
st_simplifypreservetopology

why?
