Errr... no it doesn't. PostGIS uses its own internal types to represent all the different geometries, although it does provide a cast between the existing PostgreSQL types as an aid for people wishing to migrate.

I stand corrected I guess.
The last time I looked at the actual guts of PostGIS was
WAAAAYYYYY back. And that was long before I actually started
using it.

...of course, my WAAAYYYY back memory may be crossed with my WAAAYYYYY
back forgetfulness, there as well....
