Certainty indicators are documented to be preserved on output (they are

As a side note, while ignoring the boundaries makes sense for
comparison operators, seg_union() and seg_intersect() need to do with
them. That's not documented anywhere, and their current behavior seems
pretty arbitrary. We haven't actually documented those functions at
all, I think they were added just for the GiST support and calling
them directly from SQL was an afterthought.
The attached patch fixes the one-character typo and adds regression
tests that place each indicator on both boundaries of an interval, so
the upper-boundary case is now covered. make installcheck passes with
the fix and fails without it.
Applied to master and all stable branches, thanks!
This is upsetting cross version upgrade tests, I assume since we didn't
backport it to branches older than 14.
Not sure what the best solution is. Drop the table, or at least the
offending row?
cheers
