Per your suggestion, I tweaked the patch to move to BOF when the 
negative skip value goes beyond BOF.  I updated the release note as well.

I assume skip(Long.MAX_VALUE) will cause n+pos to overflow and it will 
skip backwards rather than to the end. It might be simpler to read/audit 
if you separate the negative skip case.
