Possibly. I didn't go looking too far with looking for additional improvements.

I think that would actually be inefficient. I haven't looked at the JITed code 
but the mask calculation is pretty cheap relative to parameter passing.

I think the only change I will make is to Integer.toUnsignedString() which 
becomes :
        return Long.toUnsignedString(toUnsignedLong(i), radix);
