If division/modulo is broken as badly as the tests suggest, it's
highly likely that one of the power_mod algorithms had gone into an
infinte loop. In particular it looks like it is possible with this bug
for a % n > n -- that is going to cause problems.

The most likely files to be miscompiled that would break things in
this way are mp_misc.cpp, divide.cpp, then the other mp_* files, then
the big_* files (in order of likelyhood).
