Replying to [comment:20 daniel.is.fischer]:
> I thought so, too, for a while, but when I tried that, I ran into gcd
minBound (-1), which throws the overflowError
because rem minBound (-1)::Int throws overflowError, but surely that's a
bug: quot minBound (-1)::Int should overflow, but rem minBound (-1)::Int
should be 0.
