WPathGraphics::drawImageToPlatform causes NegativeArraySizeException

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Scenario:
Error occurs on printing of a PDF document with embedded image mask of 1x1 Pixel.
Due to fitting to printable area PDF document is downscaled with a scale factor of 0.9.
Thus image mask has a size of 0.9x0.9 Pixel.

Code producing error is:
                    // Try to limit the amount of memory used to 8Mb, so
                    // if at device resolution this exceeds a certain
                    // image size then scale down the region to fit in
                    // that memory, but never to less than 72 dpi.

                    int w = (int)region.getWidth();
                    int h = (int)region.getHeight();
                    int nbytes = w * h * 3;
                    int maxBytes = 8 * 1024 * 1024;
                    double origDpi = (devResX < devResY) ? devResX : devResY;
                    int dpi = (int)origDpi;
                    double scaleFactor = 1;

                    double maxSFX = w/(double)boundsWidth;
                    double maxSFY = h/(double)boundsHeight;
                    double maxSF = (maxSFX > maxSFY) ? maxSFY : maxSFX;
                    int minDpi = (int)(dpi/maxSF);

Analysis:
- region.getWidth() and region.getHeight() return a value of 0.9
- Value of variables w and h is 0 (cast to int)
- Value of double maxSFX and double maxSFY is 0.0
- Value of double maxSF is 0.0
- Value of int minDpi is MAX_INT (division by zero and cast to int)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- method saveState of WPrinterJob is called with a region with width 3248928.1765086283 and height 3248928.176508832
  Code: wPrinterJob.saveState(getTransform(), getClip(), region, scaleFactor, scaleFactor);
-------------------------------------------------------
- In method printPage of class RasterPrintJob a GraphicsState is fetched with a region of width 3248928.1765086283 and height 3248928.176508832
  Code:
                for (int i=0;i<redrawList.size();i++) {
                   GraphicsState gstate = redrawList.get(i);
                   pathGraphics.setTransform(initialTx);
                   ((PathGraphics)pathGraphics).redrawRegion(
                                                         gstate.region,
                                                         gstate.sx,
                                                         gstate.sy,
                                                         gstate.theClip,
                                                         gstate.theTransform);
                }
--------------------------------------------------------
- In method redrawRegion of class WPathGraphics a BufferedImage should be created
  with width 3248928.1765086283 and height 3248928.176508832 and imagetype TYPE_3BYTE_BGR
  Code:
                                        BufferedImage deepImage = new BufferedImage(
                                        (int) region.getWidth(),
                                        (int) region.getHeight(),
                                        BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR);
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- In constructor of buffered image a WritableRaster should be created with width 3248928.1765086283 and height 3248928.176508832
  Code:
          case TYPE_3BYTE_BGR:
            {
                ColorSpace cs = ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_sRGB);
                int[] nBits = {8, 8, 8};
                int[] bOffs = {2, 1, 0};
                colorModel = new ComponentColorModel(cs, nBits, false, false,
                                                     Transparency.OPAQUE,
                                                     DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE);
                raster = Raster.createInterleavedRaster(DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE,
                                                        width, height,
                                                        width*3, 3,
                                                        bOffs, null);
---------------------------------------------------------------------
- In method createInterleavedRaster of class Raster size of new Bytebuffer is set to value -194425856
  which causes NegativeArraySizeException
value of scanlineStride is 9746784 and value of pixelStride is 3
Code:
        int size = scanlineStride * (h - 1) + // fisrt (h - 1) scans
            pixelStride * w; // last scan

        switch(dataType) {
        case DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE:
            d = new DataBufferByte(size);
            break;
