Some of both.
I found some bugs in the original earthdistance code while trying to make
up regression tests.
If you would like I can split this. I can submit the bug fixes and a regression
test for the old stuff. And then after 7.3 comes out, resubmit the additional
documentation, functions (all of language type sql) and regression tests.
