Hmm, you're right. There doesn't seem to be a div64_64, I thought there
was one. Anyhow, while looking at the various divide functions I saw
that dividing by a constant shouldn't be that expensive, so I think the
sane way is to keep the two divisions and add a comment describing the
problem.

Best regards
Uwe
