Thanks for sending the patch!

I wouldn't call the core rust code broken :)

The missing symbol here should be easily stubbed by changing the
redirect-intrinsics in rust/Makefile and adding a stub in
compiler_builtins.rs. Although we probably instead of panicking, want
to redirect the division to kernel division routine (IIRC the division
is used for formatting integers, which is a legit use of division).
