Actually the Dragonball processors are all 32 bit - in fact all Motorola 68k
based processor are 32 bit. ( Look at the register width ).
The problem is with 64 bit ( long long ) results or operands. Thats when
you need the extra funcs to handle them.
BTW I did a search for "_divv" under CodeWarrior and could not find it.
