indent breaks C code !

[Xavier Bestel]

Package: indent
Version: 2.2.10-1
Severity: important


Hi,

when feeding this line:

        a += - -1;

indent transforms it to:

        a += --1;

which hasn't the same meaning at all (instead of a unary minus on a negative 
constant, it's a predecrementation of a constant) and in this example isn't 
even legal C code.

It's quite a serious issue.

Thanks,
        Xav
