Comment(by nicklas):

 I think I have found out what point_in_ring_rtree is. It is the prepared
 geometry version. A 1D index delivers all line segments that is crossing
 the y-value of the point. That means point_in_ring_rtree iterates through
 an array of line segments instead of a pointarray. So, we will need that
 implementation too. But I will at least try to merge pt_in_ring and
 point_in_ring.
