negative values for \hspace don't work anymore

[Eluze]

a user reports
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/hspace-behaviour-td136607.html 

up to 2.15.6 it was possible to write code like

\markup {
    \override #'(circle-padding . 0.55)
    \fontsize #-2.5 { "tune " \circle 3 \hspace #-2 "to f #" }
}

with negative values for \hspace

since 2.15.7 this has no effect!

I couldn't find why this change happened or where it is documented.

thanks
Eluze
