11982	distance between point and linestring on spherical_equatorial ignores radius when using haversine.	anonymous	Barend Gehrels	"Distance between a point and a linestring is incorrect when using spherical_equatorial coordinates and haversine strategy. It looks like it is always using radius = 1.0.

Example:
{{{
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/geometry.hpp>

namespace bg = boost::geometry;
typedef bg::model::point<double, 2, bg::cs::spherical_equatorial<bg::degree> > pt;
typedef bg::model::linestring<pt> pt_line;

int main()
{
    const double earthRadius = 6371.0 * 1000.0;
    pt oslo(10.733557, 59.911923);
    pt sandvika(10.521812, 59.887214);
    pt trondheim(10.4, 63.43);

    // works correct
    double d1 = bg::distance(sandvika, trondheim, bg::strategy::distance::haversine<double>(earthRadius));
    double d2 = bg::distance(oslo, trondheim, bg::strategy::distance::haversine<double>(earthRadius));
    std::cout << ""Sandvika-Trondheim "" << d1 << std::endl;
    std::cout << ""Oslo-Trondheim     "" << d2 << std::endl;

    pt_line ll;
    ll.push_back(oslo);
    ll.push_back(sandvika);

    // Does not work
    double d3 = bg::distance(trondheim, ll, bg::strategy::distance::haversine<double>(earthRadius));
    std::cout << ""Oslo-Sandvika - Trondheim "" << d3 << std::endl;

    return 0;
}
}}}

Output:
{{{
Sandvika-Trondheim 393992
Oslo-Trondheim     391587
Oslo-Sandvika - Trondheim 0.0614639
}}}

Note that the last number differs with a factor of 6371000 from the correct 391587.

It looks like distance/backward_compatibility.hpp is ignoring the incoming strategy in last argument to apply."	Bugs	new	To Be Determined	geometry	Boost 1.60.0	Problem
