Ok, so maybe you could rebuild polygons from the linestrings and test
these polygons ?
select st_orderingEquals(
st_makepolygon(geom),
st_forceRHR(st_makepolygon(geom))) from
(select geometryFromText('LINESTRING (0 0, 1 0, 1 1, 0 1, 0 0)', -1) as geom
union
select geometryFromText('LINESTRING (2 2, 2 3, 3 3, 3 2, 2 2)', -1) as
geom) as foo
;
