So it's already using the sign+magnitude stuff. Which presumably
means we can't change it to two's complement anymore :( Maybe we add a
CTM2 property ;)

Using sign+magnitude definitely looks rather inefficient since there's
a branch inside the loop. With two's complement you wouldn't need that
thing slowing you down.
