Comment(by strk):

 With r13363 in 2.1 branch and r13364 in trunk I've added the non-empty
 point and multipoint cases to the test, confirming that a "point"
 typmod'ed geometry/geography do can accept non-empty points and a
 "multipoint" typmod'ed geometry/geography cannot accept non-empty points:
 {{{
 point|0|Point|0|KO-BKO-GKO-BGKO

 point|4326|Point|0|KO-BKO-GKO-BGKO
 point|4326|PointNE|0|OK-BOK-GOK-BGOK
 point||COUNT|4|
 point||GCOUNT|4|
 }}}
