The question is not why ST_Intersects() is returning boundary touching
results, it's why your old version did not (at least, as far as you
observed). Because, ST_Intersects(A,B) is *supposed* to return true
for any object B that is not disjoint from A. So, either you were not
observing what you thought you were from that original GeoServer
setup, or GeoServer was post-filtering the data from the database to
remove the touching cases. I was pretty sure GeoServer used exactly
the same intersects semantics as PostGIS, so I lean towards the first
option.
