I have also seen this error and I believe it is to do with identical geometries being unioned. I cleaned my dataset using someting like
select t1.id from points t1, points t2 where t1.id<>t2.id and st_equals(t1.geom,t2.geom)='t' group by t1.id to find all the duplicates which i then deleted. The st_union function then worked as expected.
