I've been spending a good amount of time trying to debug
gist indexing for LWGEOM. I now discovered the bug
also show with HWGEOM (current CVS code - should be 0.9).
Does anyone experience segfaults with PG8.0.0beta2 and
postgis 0.9 / head CVS branches ?

Adding hooks in postgresql gist code I found out that
gistchose() get a Page as argument which has a maxoffsetnumber == 0,
which makes code around gist.c:1477 loop forever (up to memory fault).

Any help ?
