FX8 3D TriangleMesh : 'Small' triangle causes exception to be thrown

This valid triangle causes the following exception:

float[] points = new float[]{-0.001f, 0.142854f, -0.025393f,
                                      -0.001f, 0.142603f, -0.025318f,
                                      -0.000951f, 0.142652f, -0.025057f};
float[] texCoords = new float[]{0.0f, 0.0f};
int[] faces = new int[]{0,0, 1,0, 2,0};
TriangleMesh triaMesh = new TriangleMesh(points, texCoords, faces);

MeshView triaMeshView = new MeshView(triaMesh);
triaMeshView.setMaterial(new PhongMaterial(Color.RED));
 
But it works fine if the vertices are scaled by 10:

float[] pointsScaled = new float[]{-0.01f, 1.42854f, -0.25393f,
                                                -0.01f, 1.42603f, -0.25318f,
                                                -0.00951f, 1.42652f, -0.25057f};
