ST_GeneratePoints invalid memory alloc request

[mdavis]

This case of a very narrow vertical box:

SELECT  ST_GeneratePoints('POLYGON((36.75 35.230555555555554,36.75 35.233333333333334,36.75000000000002 35.233333333333334,36.75000000000002 35.230555555555554,36.75 35.230555555555554))',1);

produces:

ERROR:  invalid memory alloc request size 1433372880
