Ok, that's the problem.
The question is, why signed types are ignored, respectively not possible.

Because we overlooked this. I intended to change it today but Guy was faster than me. Nightly master-2.0, master-2.2 and master builds should behave properly. If you need to use a stable released version, then you need to create the tree and sub elements yourself as I suggested yesterday.
