I found out that GEOSMakeValid will remove EMPTY components from
collections. The PostGIS implementation of it does not do this.

The rationale was that a collection with EMPTY component is NOT
invalid as per OGC specification, so why removing them ? Isn't
that a job for CollectionHomogenize or similar ?
