ST_Intersection returns EMPTY when mixing 2D and 3D geometries

[ezimanyi]

select st_astext(st_intersection(geometry 'Linestring z(3 1 1,3 1 3)',
  geometry 'POLYGON((2 0,2 2,4 2,4 0,2 0))'));
"LINESTRING EMPTY"
select postgis_full_version();

It's not the mixed dimensions, it's the fact that your linestring has zero length. Now it's arguable whether or not the answer should be 'POINT(3 1)' but that's a question for GEOS.

select st_astext(st_intersection(
   'LINESTRING(3 1, 3 1)',
   'POLYGON((2 0, 2 2, 4 2, 4 0, 2 0))'));

 LINESTRING EMPTY

This won't get fixed here, I've punted it upstream. ​https://github.com/libgeos/geos/issues/884
