FWIW,
   '*' ((<1;2 3),<0;7 7) } 2 9$'-'

If you could produce an adverb that would map
  ((<1;2 3),<0;7)
into
  ((<1;2 3),<0;7 7)
and do something equivalent and suitable in the general case, you'd have 
a fix for the problem.

I'm not confident I can even describe the general case, never mind deal 
with it ...
