i wondered if, like in the ieee754fp tests, if some random values could be
added, too.

also, some exponentially scaled numbers.

two random uniform distributed numbers for div, the answer pretty much
averages out to 1 which is of course a fairly useless test.

by doing this you get a much better distribution suited to testing divide
full range:

x = random(1,32)
return random(0,1<<x)
