Description
If you run the following, it takes down the postgres service:
select st_isvalid(null); select st_isvalid('sometext');
My apologies if this has already been resolved or is miscategorised. I thought it was important to report since it took out the postgres.exe processes completely.

Yes this is a known issue related to #2338. Its a family of issues. Unfortunately fixing it in 9.1/9.2 64-bit requires me to change quite a few libraries (GEOS, Proj etc.). I can provide binary fixes if you need it badly.
The fix for this issue I have in 9.3 x64-bit releases for 2.1 moving forward. I don't plan to fix prior versions at least until 9.3 has been out in the field for a bit to make sure I'm not swapping one set of issues for another.
Fixing for prior versions may break peoples installs where they have both 2.0/2.1 installed since it would require upgrade of both.
