This makes sense, and after I thought about it a little, it is what I
assumed was happening.

Just a part of Rexx, I don't think about much.  I'm just used to
thinking of -1, -3422, etc., as a single token, a number.

I use parens in a lot of places for use arg initializers.  I just need
to remember that -1 is two tokens, not 1.
