commit ce84456ddf4e57c18a84858755b8b90c183a270e

Math::BigInt does floored divs, BN_div does truncated div, compensate
According to documentation, perl's Math::BigInt does floored division,
i.e. the bdiv function does 1 / -4 = -1. OpenSSL's BN_div, as well as
bc, do truncated division, i.e. 1 / -4 = 0.
We need to compensate for that difference in test/recipes/bc.pl to
make sure to verify the bntest results under its own conditions, by
dividing the absolute values of the given numbers and fixup the
result's negativity afterwards.
Closes RT#4485
