Comment (by pramsey):

 I can see at least filtering the bbox condition, but otherwise I'd
 consider a geometry with an Inf to be a bad citizen and not spend effort
 trying to support login on them. That said, I can't easily create one, I
 tried to make one with a mercator transform, but proj was too smart.
 {{{
 postgis30=# select st_astext(st_transform('SRID=4326;POINT(0 90)', 3857));
 psql: ERROR:  transform: tolerance condition error (-20)
 }}}
