No so simple.
Gerber can handle 9999.99999 mm (internal unit = 10 nanometers)

But Pcbnew cannot handle this size.
It is limited to roughly -1m to +1m

this board file has a text located to INT_MIN on the y axis.
I do not know how it is possible, but this is outside the Pcbnew capacity.
see the line:
  (gr_text Reset (at 129.54 -2147.483648 180) (layer B.Cu)

that locate a text at y = -2m and this is not possible with Pcbnew.

Therefore the .gbr file cannot be correctly created by Pcbnew (integer overflow) and I think the board file is broken.
