The mod instruction has special cases that aren't handled by this C code,
too (divide by 0, or signed division of the most negative number by -1).
For the mod intruction the behaviour is undefined in those cases, but you
probably should force some specific behaviour.  You don't want the kernel
to execute a trap instruction, etc. :-)
