I'm sorry, but are you really trying to argue that libraries like libc and libm
MUST ALWAYS use the software emulation of the divider and sign extender (even
if their hardware versions are available on the CPU), as not applying this
change would imply?

The reason is simple, if you haven't guessed it: speed (and code size, but this
matters less). Not for me only, but for everyone else as well.
