IIUC, this is a new situation that has never occurred before regarding
builtins.
If so, maybe a new mechanism should be developed, that we add a couple of
offsetof(div_t) sometime during the building of gcc so the offsets are known by
the builtins. IOW, some kind of script invoked by the build system that
generates a header file containing the offsets of the members of the
structure...
Maybe something like the attachment
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=38323)
Then, we include the generated header file (which contains the offsets) from
the source file that implements the builtin.

Would this be acceptable? I'm not sure what about the first time when
bootstrapping, or when building a cross-compiler.
