The SmalltalkScanner used for refactorings, live error reporting and some other IDE purposes, loses the sign of simple negative floats. This hasn't mattered much to date because the literal values generated are not consumed, e.g. when an AST is used to reformat code, the original number syntax is preserved.
To Reproduce evaluate:
(SmalltalkScanner on: '-1.23' readStream) next value "=> 1.23"

Obviously the result should be -1.23.
1-line fix + test update.
