Comment (by Algunenano):

 One thing I've been thinking about and want to review is about the
 `recheck` flag. I **think** that when recheck is marked we end up calling
 the non-gist function (ST_Distance in this case), so it might be that
 ST_Distance needs to be "leak-free".

 I'm going to have a look at how this recheck thingy works to see if that
 offers any explanations.
