Operating system:   Ubuntu 24.04
Description:        

The following script:
CREATE TABLE t(p point);
INSERT INTO t SELECT point(g, g) FROM generate_series(1, 1000) g;
INSERT INTO t VALUES ('(0,NaN)'::point);

CREATE INDEX spgist_idx ON t USING spgist(p);
triggers:
ERROR:  XX000: getQuadrant: impossible case
LOCATION:  getQuadrant, spgquadtreeproc.c:77

Reproduced starting from 8daeb5ddd.

Yeah.  There's been some past attempts to clean up our behavior
for NaNs in geometric values, but it's such a mess that not
much progress has been made.  So I can't get excited about
worrying about this case in particular (especially since I don't
see any easy fix).  I wonder if we shouldn't just ban NaNs in
the geometric types.
