Josh Rosenberg <shadowranger+pyt...@gmail.com> added the comment:

divmod imposes higher fixed overhead in exchange for operating more efficiently 
on larger values.

Given the differences are small either way, and using divmod reduces 
scalability concerns for larger values (which are more likely to occur in code 
that delays normalization), I'd be inclined to stick with the simpler 
divmod-based implementation.
