The following expresion:

SELECT ASTEXT(ST_INTERSECTION( GEOMETRYFROMTEXT('GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(LINESTRING(7 7,5.33333333333333 7),LINESTRING(5.33333333333333 7,0 7,5 8,5.33333333333333 7),LINESTRING(5.33333333333333 7,7 2,7 7),POLYGON((0 5,3 5,3 2,1 2,1 1,3 1,3 0,0 0,0 3,2 3,2 4,0 4,0 5)))'), geomETRYFROMTEXT(' MULTILINESTRING( ( 5 1 , 3 7 , 6 1 , 7 0 ) , ( 1 6 , 8 5 , 7 5 , 5 6 ) )') ));

returns MULTIPOINT(7 5,5.14285714285714 7,5.3 5.9,5.6 5.8,3 7) in mysql

and MULTIPOINT(3 7,5.8 5.6,5.9 5.3,7 5,7 5.14285714285714) in postgis

Visual examination of the geometries in an editor reveals that the postgis result is correct. In the mysql result, the X and Y coordinates appear to be reversed for some points.
