Comment:

 This was fixed in 1.57 as a side effect of fixing
 https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/10562. Since 1.57 a Polygon
 containing the minimal correct number of Points is returned (3 for open
 and 4 for closed Polygons) so "correct" area and perimeter can be
 calculated. Note that according to OGC specification Polygons with area =
 0 are invalid.
