I like the new naming better, BUT this is a change that is not
backwards compatible. Are we worrying about such things yet?
Or is still possible to make them without the wrath of the masses?

I gather the change you propose makes `div` consistent with
SML and Miranda, and uses `quo` for what Scheme calls `quotient`.
Sounds good to me. -- P

Folks,
Kent has pointed out to me that the Haskell's use of `div` for truncating,
as opposed to flooring, division is incompatible with both SML and
Miranda, whereas neither Scheme nor Common Lisp have a function by
that name. (Scheme calls it "quotient".) I am willing to change `div`
to `quo`
