I was checking the Pavel patch and notice that he was using the fillfactor
parameter when creating the gist index. I changed my previous patch to include
this parameter and the code coverage of gistbuild.c and gistbuildbuffers.c was
improved to 97.7% and 92.8% respectively.
I'm attaching this new patch, could you please check if this change make sense
and also don't impact the test runtime?

I can't say much about it. If there's anything I can do here, please let
me know.
