Comment(by strk):

 Tested, nice!
 Looking forward to see the 2D index fixed too, so I can do:
 explain select st_asewkt(g) from test where g ~= 'POINT EMPTY'::geometry;

 And get all empty (or otherwise infinite) elements in the table!

 More on the memset: is it needed at all ?
 I see all uses of bbox_out protected by gidx_set_unknown already. Sounds
 enough.
