Tuomas Tynkkynen f0fc3dd88b Fix SIGFPE from integer overflow during division
On some architectures (like x86_64 or i686, but not ARM for example)
overflow during integer division causes a crash due to SIGFPE.
Reproduces on a 64-bit system with:

    nix-instantiate --eval -E '(-9223372036854775807 - 1) / -1'

The only way this can happen is when the smallest possible integer is
divided by -1, so just special-case that.

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of it's purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
