Hmm. The first parameter in my code is never negative because diviu_rem
is used for easy conversion of numeral systems without a sign. 

  ...
  if (signe(N) < 0) setsigne(N, 1);
 
  ...
 
  for (z = 0; signe(N); ) {     /* convert N into numeral of base */
    N = diviu_rem(N, base, &k);
    numeral[z++] = k;
  }
  ...
