To me, "divide by zero" is such a fundamental low-level error, whereas
Math::DomainError sounds more high-level, and the two don't mix well.
I understand your logic though, and don't mind either way.  Just
throwing in another thought.

Thanks for your work on this, Marc-Andre and others.  I'm looking
forward to Ruby having more mathematical correctness and goodies out
of the box.
