Here is a test case that crashes even with the patch: create table floats3(x float8, y float8); -- same badfloats.txt data as before \copy floats3 from 'badfloats.txt' update floats3 set x = x * pow(2::float8,33), y = y * pow(2::float8,33); create table boxes1 (b box); create index boxes1_idx on boxes1 using gist (b); insert into boxes1 select box(point(x,x),point(y,y)) as b from floats3; [crash] -- Andrew (irc:RhodiumToad) -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
