Comment:

 OK, so the computation works fine in 2D mode, but in 4D mode it runs afoul
 of this little code block:
 {{{
  if ( ! gbox_is_valid(&gbox) )
   {
     POSTGIS_DEBUGF(3, " skipped infinite/nan geometry %d", i);
     continue;
   }
 }}}
 The super-huge M value gets bumped up to Inf in float space, so the box
 is, from the point-of-view of the stats system, not handle-able.
 I'm going to close this as won't-fix since hte workaround is just to
 force2d the crapping values off your geometries.
