Comment (by asn):

 Yawning suggests this is a signed int overflow that leads to an abort
 because of ftrapv (#17983).

 The overflow happens at:
 {{{
   if (INT64_MAX - divisor + 1 < number)
     return INT64_MAX;
 }}}
 whose left side probably gets applied as `INT64_MAX + 1 - divisor`.

 A potential fix here would be to reorder that if statement to:
 {{{
   if (INT64_MAX - number < divisor - 1)
     return INT64_MAX;
 }}}
 maybe with an additional check that `divisor >= 1`.
