geos turns 'POLYGON EMPTY' into 'POLYGON(EMPTY)'

Description

I wouldn't mind except that in postgis, ST_IsEmpty('POLYGON(EMPTY)') ==> False.

Using the geodjango bindings: 

    >>> from django.contrib.gis import geos
    >>> g = geos.GEOSGeometry('POLYGON EMPTY')
    >>> print g.wkt, g.hex
    '01030000000100000000000000'

    >>> g = geos.GEOSGeometry('POLYGON(EMPTY)')
    >>> print g.wkt, g.hex
    '01030000000100000000000000'

I filed a postgis bug for that ST_IsEmpty issue: ​http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/2015

Even worse, I can't even use hex to create the geometry, which means I can't work around the bug: 

    >>> geos.GEOSGeometry('010300000000000000').hex
    '01030000000100000000000000'

I see the postgis side has been fixed (but only 2.1.x) Have a patch for the GEOS side of it ?
