By they don't work, what exactly do you mean? Do you mean it gives the wrong
answer?

The gardens tests on curves didn't error out on ST_Area.  This same test
also doesn't error out in PostGIS 2.1

SELECT ST_Area(
ST_GeomFromEWKT('SRID=4326;CURVEPOLYGON(CIRCULARSTRING(-71.0821 42.3036,
-71.4821 42.3036, -71.7821 42.7036, -71.0821 42.7036, -71.0821
42.3036),(-71.1821 42.4036, -71.3821 42.6036, -71.3821 42.4036, -71.1821
42.4036) ) ') );

Thanks,
Regina
