You also get weird artifacts when the gradient orientation and normal is very small.
looks funny:)
In attached image, orientation is 0@-1 and normal is 1@1

Confirmed.

In order to reproduce it, draw a rectangle with radial gradient fill, with direction and normal, both of length 1.
This is not the reason why it crashes. It happens for other values as well:
|form canvas fill direction normal| direction := 4@0. normal := 0@2. form := Form extent:300@300 depth:32. canvas := form getCanvas. fill := GradientFillStyle new colorRamp:{0 -> Color white . 0.5 -> Color green . 1 -> Color blue};origin:400@400 ;direction:direction;normal:normal;radial:true;yourself. canvas fillRectangle: (0@0 extent:800@800) fillStyle: fill. Display getCanvas drawImage: form at: 300@300
This uses a different value for direction and normal and the fill is defined for a larger area (800x800) -> CRASH
Maybe, this is a rare bug, because, normally you don't create a small gradient t o fill a large area. But a vm crash is not nice, I would like to get this fixed.
I am not sure what is the exact cause, but it may come from a signed integer overflwo, It looks like Balloon uses fixed point arithmetik (binary scaling). This fixed point representation (16.16 bit fixed point represented in a 32 integer) tend to overflow, especially for operations like computing the squared length of a vector x*x+y*y -> overflow -> result is a negative number.
Possible solutions: downscale prior to the multiplication -> lost of precision use a larger datatype for intermediate results.
It looks like B2D uses the first option (look at senders of accurateLengthOfwith and squaredLenghtOfwith Maybe there is something wrong with the other code that multiplies the values, or the 16.16 bit fixed point is just not large enough for some fills?
Any ideas?

This one works (no vm crash): |form canvas fill direction normal| direction := 1@0. normal := 0@0. form := Form extent:300@300 depth:32. canvas := form getCanvas. fill := GradientFillStyle new colorRamp:{0 -> Color white . 0.5 -> Color green . 1 -> Color blue};origin:150@150 ;direction:direction;normal:normal;radial:true;yourself. canvas fillRectangle: (50@50 extent:200@200) fillStyle: fill. Display getCanvas drawImage: form at: 300@300.
direction := 1@0. normal := 0@0. -> OK
direction := 0@0. normal := 0@1. -> OK
direction := 1@0. normal := 0@1. -> VM-Crash (Pharo and Squeak)
