Memoir class, graphicx, `\resizebox`

Question

My first post here, I apologize in advance for typos, misused code scripts or for anything. (First post, however, I have been using and digging this great site for long years and always found answers to my actual latex problems -- until today.)

I have a xelatex document, memoir class, I created back in 2013 and that time it worked, compiled, pdf-ed (... stamped, signed and delivered...) The other day I had to recompile it, TL2016 running on Arch linux 64, and at a given image setting point after a \resizebox command it got stubborn, saying "!Dimensions too large." The updates I had to do in the document are only pure text changes, no commands, no package invocations, no latex specific stuff were changed, even the image is the very same I used three years ago...

Affected lines:

\begin{picture}(0,0)(0,0)
    \put(270,530){\resizebox{5.5cm}{!}{\includegraphics{USZT}}}
\end{picture}

I can't find a reason why a 5.5 cm logo would be kind of a too large dimension. Is it possible that memoir class has got some new features recently which can produce such a failure now and not back in 2013? Or xelatex, or graphicx package? Or have I been staring the source too long to be able to pick an obvious mistake?

Thanks for your concern!

A dummy code:

\begin{document}
\pagestyle{empty}

\lipsum[1-3]

\begin{picture}(0,0)(0,0)
    \put(270,530){\resizebox{5.5cm}{!}{\includegraphics{USZT}}}
\end{picture}

\begin{picture}(0,0)(0,0)
    \put(270,-100){\resizebox{5.5cm}{!}{\includegraphics{ESZA_egyes3}}}
\end{picture}

\end{document}

This is extend comment (in comment I cant add picture ...) and I will delete it after while. Your troubles aren't caused by code, since using demo images from graphics package works as expected:

So, I conclude, that you problems is caused by picture. probably they haven't properly defined bounding box. I made test with XeLaTeX, but without your fonts (I haven't them):

\documentclass[11pt, a4paper, oneside]{memoir}
\usepackage[showframe]{geometry}
%\usepackage{calc}
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}
%\usepackage{xfrac}
%\usepackage{multirow}
%\usepackage{float}
%\usepackage{wrapfig}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
%\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text, Numbers=OldStyle}
%\setromanfont[Ligatures={Discretionary},BoldFont={WarnockPro-Semibold}, ItalicFont={WarnockPro-LightIt}]{WarnockPro-Light}
%\setsansfont [Ligatures={Common}, BoldFont={MyriadPro-Semibold}, ItalicFont={MyriadPro-It}]{MyriadPro-Regular}
\usepackage[xetex, bookmarks, colorlinks, breaklinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage{memhfixc}
\hypersetup{linkcolor=black, citecolor=blue, filecolor=black, urlcolor=blue,
            pdftitle={bla},pdfauthor={BLA}}

\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]

\begin{picture}(0,0)(0,0)
    \put(245,-120){\includegraphics[width=5.5cm]{USZT}}
\end{picture}

\begin{picture}(0,0)(0,0)
    \put(245,-240){\includegraphics[width=5.5cm]{ESZA_egyes3}}
\end{picture}
    \end{document}
