I checked and confirmed that there is a bug in the mapObj.save() method. 
However, the behavior that we got confirms that the -1,-1,-1 value is 
properly accepted and set by MapScript. Please see ticket #4042 for the 
full story.

With similar code in PHP MapScript, I am able to get a red outline with 
transparent fill on the reference map. I'm not setup to test with Python 
myself, so I'll leave it to someone else to investigate if you confirm 
that you still cannot get a red outline with transparent fill on your 
reference maps.
