Oops. I think that we will welcome any updates and fixes to any of the
built in features of PostgreSQL, no matter our individual opinions of
the usefulness of a particular feature (right??). In this case, the
return value patches would seem to be important and the second topic
should be addressed also.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, the PostGIS is under a far more restrictive license (E.g. I
cannot/won't use it.)
If fixing a bug is easy, why not fix it? For most tests, there won't
be any difference anyway. It is only when the numbers become large
or small that differences start to appear.
