M*/ ignores negative numbers.
For example -1. 1 1 M*/ D. gives 1 instead of -1
Same result with 1. -1 1 M*/

It's easy to fix and I will update the repo soon. There is an internal RAM register clash that resets the sign bit of the result. This issue should not have happened. I may have overlooked this specific case when testing the latest round of speed optimizations and code size reductions to make the Forth500 system fit in about 20K
