Hi,

Using the latest ConTeXt (2025.02.19), negative slants are broken with
compact fonts. Example document:

    \definefontfeature[default][default][Slant=-1]

    \startTEXpage
        Hello, world!
    \stopTEXpage

When compiled with "context", I get the error message

    tex error       > tex error on line 1 in file ./context-negative-slant.tex: 
Scale factor (-1000) should be in the range 0..100000
    [...]
    I'm going to use 0 instead of that illegal code value.

but when compiled with "context --nocompactfonts", I get the correct
result.

Thanks,
-- Max
