This is a bug in hat-trans, which appears to be (sort of) fixed in
the current CVS version.  The next release of Hat is due in a couple
of weeks, but if you can't wait, and would prefer not to use CVS,
there is a workaround: in your program, replace uses of the constant
-1 with (negate 1), excepting patterns of course.
