  201. \&\fBBN_div()\fR divides \fIa\fR by \fId\fR and places the result in \fIdv\fR and the
  202. remainder in \fIrem\fR (\f(CW\*(C`dv=a/d, rem=a%d\*(C'\fR). Either of \fIdv\fR and \fIrem\fR may
  203. be \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR, in which case the respective value is not returned.
  204. The result is rounded towards zero; thus if \fIa\fR is negative, the
