The function

numeric irem(const numeric &a, const numeric &b)

prints "Division by zero." and exits when b is zero. As in all the other cases reported, this makes it more difficult to write robust software. Of course, we can check b before calling irem() (and we are doing it) but this impedes performance for no reason, since the test on b must be re-done anyway in order to decide whether to print the error message and exit.

Thanks, I've fixed it. The two signatures of iquo() were affected as well, btw.
