[Nickle]Indeed, it's a bug (Re: scanf can't scan negitive numbers?)

[Barton C Massey]

It's a (somewhat embarassing) bug: string_to_real() was
checking for the sign at the beginning, but forgetting to
put it back at the end.  Fixed in current CVS: thanks much
for the report!

If anyone wanted to write a test suite for Nickle...
