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]
