(Ihave tried recompilation with higher CUBE_MAX_DIM myself), but conceptually kNN GiST searches using Cubes can be
usefulfor these applications.  There are other pre-processing techniques that can be used to improved the speed of the
search,but it still ends up with a kNN search in a high-ish dimensional space. 

Is there a way to fix the numerical instability involved?  If we could do
that, then we'd definitely have a use-case justifying the work to make
cube toastable.
