It's the patch of the final case which doesn't satisfy the assumptions
of that assert (by storing a result directly in np[1] instead of going
via the n1 variable). So I'll delete that assert and check in.

I also have some concerns over the divappr interface (basically, to
produce qn quotient words it should need only qn+1 limbs of N and at
most qn+1 limbs of d, I'll have to get the details down in a separate
mail).
