Hmmmm... building from latest git, the line:

	REM SATISFY [day(trigdate()-25) == 14] MSG Foo 

gives the error:

	test.rem(1): `-': Date overflow

as follows:

$ cat test.rem

REM SATISFY [day(trigdate()-25) == 14] MSG Foo

$ remind -b1 -m -c+1 test.rem

This worked OK with prior versions. Is the reminder syntax now to be
considered malformed, or is this an unintended side effect of the new
changes?
