Seems that the value returned by eval_type_str() were always unsigned, and never signed extended. Luckily, looking at all the trace events that actually have a signed value seldom (if ever) are negative, so this bug never showed its face, and if it has, nobody noticed it. Converted the sign variable to boolean while at it.
