[New-bugs-announce] [issue19574] Negative integer division error

[Vatroslav Suton]

New submission from Vatroslav Suton:

integer division obviously uses float division with math.floor, which produces invalid result when result is less than 0, simply try the following 5/2 versus -5/2. Please use math.ceil function for results less than 0.
btw is there any way to patch that in __builtins__ ?
