Yeah, I think you're right. Although I find `div' and `mod' to be the
most useful integer division operators, and will always bind them to
short names in my programs, I worry that existing code out there may
bind `div' and `mod' to something else, and that would probably be bad.
I'll take care of it.
Best,
