No, I goofed.  I tested with the reference implementation, which has
a problem with `-', and with my own code.  My code works correctly,
but I forgot that it treats digits 6..9 as AN, not EN.  If I replace
`6' with `3', everything works as with your code.

I believe Yair also was tripped by the buggy reference implementation.

Sorry for the line noise.
