int(1/x^2,x,-1,1)

Hi 92-ers,

I don't have the '92, but I'm a Deriver from way back.  One of
the curious bugs in Derive is that, if you integrate 1/x^2 from
-1 to 1, it give you 2.

I love this because it teaches students to be wary of computers telling
tales.  Could someone try this on the '92 and tell me how it comes out?
