I just filed a GitHub issue: https://github.com/akorotkov/pgsphere/issues/5

I'd be very surprised if the PG version played any substantial role
here. The differences all seem to be related to endianess or FP
rounding. Also, I know that Alexander is doing PG development on
PowerPC, so he'll be testing any patches on PG master HEAD and will
spot any problems anyway.
