This has returned -1 since Emacs 26.1 (it used to return nil), and I
think -1 is fine here (since we've asked for a number, and that's a
kinda numberish thing).  (I also see the logic in returning nil in Lisp
buffers, but number-at-point is a DWIM-ish command.)

So I think this works as it's supposed, and I'm closing this bug report.
