Back in the day, I coded the neg_adj because there was some issue with
signed 64 bit division that I can't recall now.  Either div_s64 didn't
exist or it was buggy on some archs... there was _some_ reason.

So unless you are sure that this works on all platforms, I would leave
it alone.

Thanks,
Richard
