Eric Hanson updated HIVE-6243:
------------------------------
Attachment: divide-error.01.patch
Run TestDecimal128.testKnownPriorErrors() to exhibit the bug.
Stepping through the code shows that a * b gives the correct value, but then
dividing that by a again does not give the expected result. So, the bug is in
the division method divideDestructive();
> error in high-precision division for Decimal128
