Well, as far as I know lsegs haven't changed recently, but with lots of
small changes recently something might have or...
I tried your test case (which is a _lot_ simpler than the regression
test) and did not find a problem. On the assumption that you are seeing
an alignment problem, I checked pg_type.h for the alignment definition
for lseg, but it is specified as "d" which should be 8-byte aligned and
_should_ be OK with the Alpha.
I don't have any more visibility into your problem, but if you want to
pursue it you can try embedding some printf() statements into geo_ops.c
to isolate the misbehaving code.
