   // a1 * RADIX + a0 = quot * b + RV
   inline udigit
   divide (udigit & quot, udigit a1, udigit a0, udigit b)
   {
     udigit a[2] = { a0, a1 };
     return mpn_divrem_1(&quot, 0, a, 2, b);
   }
 
 [...]
     udigit accum_l, accum_h, temp_h, temp_l, carry;
 [...]
       accum_h = divide(carry, 0, accum_h, pp);
 
 It seems to me that mpn_divrem_1 might write 2 words to carry,
 clobbering random stack memory. Are you sure it doesn't?
