Comment(by simonmar):
The patch is a bit heavy-handed - the special case for negative offsets is
not an optimisation, it's there to make the generated C easier to read,
and it's pretty important (IMHO).
It would be good to look into @igloo's concerns too while we're here. I'm
also wondering why my unregisterised builds using `integer-simple` didn't
run into this...
