At the time annotate_values() is run, the type is unknown and the cast type is misinterpreted as a identifier, resulting in an error if it is followed with a negative value: ERROR: spaces required around that '-' (ctx:WxV) It seems complex to catch all possible types in a cast expression. So, as a fallback solution, let's add some common qemu types to the typeList array.
