Yah, the semantics of '/' seem right, in that they perform division
where ( int / int ) yields a float.
But 'div' should do real div, at least in my mind (though, I can
understand if you're following a broken spec) and yeild an integer
from (int div int), but it doesn't.
So, we have 2 ways to mod, 2 ways to divide, an 0 ways to div.

I think division is obviously needed, but I don't know if we need
2 tokens to do it. Having 'div' to what most folks consider to be
'div' would be a Good Thing.
