I do have 2 simple linestrings which partly have the same geometry (see
attached dump and image). My aim is to detect the common part of these
two linestrings with the following query:

select st_intersection(a.the_geom, b.the_geom), a.myid
from aline1, aline2

But as the result I get a geometrycollection with one POINT and one
LINESTING. I expected one linestring. Is it a bug??
I'll appreciate any hints.

My system:
Postgis 1.4.0
Geos 3.1.1
Postgres 8.3.6
