Hello Jim,
Thanks for your suggestions. As of now I taking an easy way to fix the
issue, New changes are available at
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~arajkumar/8155903/webrev.02
I couldn't write a reliable test case using public javafx APIs, the
behavior is intermittent. However I could consistently produce the issue
using our DRT internal test case which is based on W3C functional test[1].

Hi Arun,
The change you made to the calculateSingleArray method looks like it
produces a bad array of color stops for the case where Imin is 0. You
should fall into the calculateMultipleArray method instead which
should not have any trouble with zero length intervals. At that point
you don't have to have any code in calculateSingleArray that deals
with Imin being zero because that can be part of its calling contract.
That is the quick fix.
The harder fix that would let us maintain speed when there is a zero
interval would be to teach the code what to do in that special case.
Basically a zero interval means that we have a case where approaching
the interval point from the left is interpolating towards colorA, but
leaving that point from the right is interpolating from colorB, with a
sudden transition between those 2. In that case, a zero interval
shouldn't affect the Imin, since the Imin is trying to determine the
size of each interpolated region and we don't interpolate across a
zero-sized interval. So, the scan for Imin would simply ignore zero
length intervals. Later, the code that populates the array in the
calculateSingleArray function would know that the zero length interval
simply means swap in a new "from color" without any actual interpolation.
Getting that harder fix right would require a lot of testing, so it
may be better to do the quick fix now to stop the exceptions and then
deal with the optimization as a tweak filed for later...
