I've been working on the divide stuff on and off.  I have results for DIVS.W 
and DIVU.W which I can post together with the source code for the program that 
obtained them.

I started work on the 32-bit divides but that's paused ATM.  The problem there 
of course is that it's impossible to perform every possible divide and check 
the results, so the code tries to do quasi-random, quasi-boundary tests.  I 
have some preliminary results, but I need to fire up the TT again to continue.  
If anyone is interested in me continuing (or in getting my code & pursuing it 
themselves), let me know.
