I'm a little bit uncomfortable with the way that this patch presumes that
PageIsEmpty (a) is safe on an all-zeroes page and (b) will return true for
such a page. Yes, it does work at the moment; but I don't think we are
making such an assumption anyplace else, and in view of your other two
concurrent patches, it doesn't seem very future-proof here either.
I recommend that the code look more like
if (!SpGistBlockIsRoot(blkno))
{
if (PageIsNew(page) || PageIsEmpty(page))
