Err.  I think the way you implement that in reassoc is ad-hoc and not
related to reassoc at all.

In fact what reassoc is missing is to handle

 -y * z * (-w) * x -> y * x * w * x

thus optimize negates as if they were additional * -1 entries in a
multiplication chain.  And
then optimize a single remaining * -1 in the result chain to a negate.

Then match.pd handles x + (-y) -> x - y (independent of -frounding-math btw).

So no, this isn't ok as-is, IMHO you want to expand the multiplication ops chain
pulling in the * -1 ops (if single-use, of course).
