Bug #1614
SourceRegion gives misleading error mesg
Description
Here is the simplified failing example from issue #1613:
F3 ::= ZZ/(3); phi := CanonicalHom(ZZ,F3); psi := InducedHom(QQ,phi); a:=psi(1/3);
If I send these lines to CoCoA-5 (inside emacs) using SourceRegion then the correct error mesg is not produced, but instead:
--> ERROR: Line number or char position too large or negative --> SourceRegion 11,1 to 15,1 in "/home/jabbott/ShortTerm/BUG-FrF.cocoa5"; --> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why? The printed error is completely unhelpful (and wrong!)

I have rather blindly changed the interpreter. The code now seems to work as hoped (but I am not too confident that other nasty surprises aren't lurking in ambush).
