Hi,

I have noticed something with the way ConTeXt is treating math kerns that I
do not understand.

Consider a prescript such as
\startformula
H^^^M
\stopformula

If the math.tl anchor on H is negative then the M is moved to the left (i.e
away from the H).  This is the opposite of what I would have expected, but
perhaps I am confused.  Also if the math.tl anchor on H is positive then
ConTexT appears to be ignoring this kerning, and the position of the M is
unchanged.

Is this expected, or is this behaviour subject to some setting?  The
version of ConTeXt used is pasted below.

Thanks!

Julius
