Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Python's `//` operator does floor division: that is, the (true) quotient is 
converted to an integer by taking the floor (rounding towards -infinity) 
instead of truncating (rounding towards zero).

So indeed it's not a bug. The behaviour is documented here: 
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#binary-arithmetic-operations
