I'm not sure if this is a bug or just a SUE (Stupid User Error), but

	40 10 div	--->  4		in GhostScript 2.4.1 (SunOS 4.1.1)

while

	40 10 div	--->  4.0	on NeXT and on a SPARC under NeWS

I.e. GhostScript returns and Integer while other PS interps return a
real.  It is easy enough to fix but I thought I would point it out
anyway.  (On the off chance that anyone cares).
