Please try the following simple tests:
Integrate[Exp[x-a],x]
then,
Integrate[Exp[x-a],{x,-Infinity,a}]
I get the following solution (with Mathematica 3.01)
If[a<0,1,...]
Is this the intended solution for this integral? A simple calculation
shows that this integral will evaluate to 1 for any a > 0 !
