According to bc 0xFFFFC383838B4B53 / 0x80000000 = 0x1FFFF8707. The result is 33 bits or in other words the operation *overflows*. According to IA-32 manual "overflow is indicated with the #DE (divide error) rather than with the CF flag" which is why it dumps the core. This behaviour does not constitute a bug as BN_div makes sure the condition is never met.
