I'm checking the mod binary operator, and I found out that if the
dividend is negative, it gives a negative result. AFAIK, mod gives an
integer between 0 and d-1, where d is the divisor.

Isn't this the right behavior?

This is the mathematical definition of modulus, but all programming
languages implement the same behavior as the one of FPC.

Not really <http://www2.gnu-pascal.de/crystal/gpc/en/mail7597.html>.
