What's the context/usecase? I saw some mails on the ietf-ssh list, but
it was a bit unclear to me what the status of this algorithm is.

In general, it makes sense to add support for post-quantum key exchange
methods, another candidate seems to be https://classic.mceliece.org/
(with the drawback of much larger pubkeys).

I initially looked at the arithmetics. The signed (int32) sorting and
division seems unused? For the side-channel silent divmod function, it
seems we divide exclusively with one or a few constants, then we could
precompute needed constants and perhaps simplify a bit.
