Hackers,

Following is a patch to force the path type not to accept a path with
zero points.  This appears to be illegal in the parser, but possible
when sending a well formed packed in binary with zero points.  The old
behavior was this:

ERROR:  floating-point exception
DETAIL:  An invalid floating-point operation was signaled. This probably
means an out-of-range result or an invalid operation, such as division
by zero.

now it should properly display the points out of range error
