46 	 * The ANSI standard says that |r.quot| <= |n/d|, where
47 	 * n/d is to be computed in infinite precision.  In other
48 	 * words, we should always truncate the quotient towards
49 	 * 0, never -infinity.
50 	 *
51 	 * Machine division and remainer may work either way when
52 	 * one or both of n or d is negative.  If only one is
53 	 * negative and r.quot has been truncated towards -inf,
54 	 * r.rem will have the same sign as denom and the opposite
55 	 * sign of num; if both are negative and r.quot has been
56 	 * truncated towards -inf, r.rem will be positive (will
57 	 * have the opposite sign of num).  These are considered
58 	 * `wrong'.
59 	 *
60 	 * If both are num and denom are positive, r will always
61 	 * be positive.
62 	 *
63 	 * This all boils down to:
64 	 *	if num >= 0, but r.rem < 0, we got the wrong answer.
65 	 * In that case, to get the right answer, add 1 to r.quot and
66 	 * subtract denom from r.rem.
