Division segfaults server as well - SELECT '3'::money / 2 - for the same reason 
multiplication did.

/* cash_div_int4() * Divide cash by 4-byte integer. * */
Datum
cash_div_int4(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{Cash        c = PG_GETARG_CASH(0);int64        i = PG_GETARG_INT64(1);Cash        result;
if (i == 0)    ereport(ERROR,            (errcode(ERRCODE_DIVISION_BY_ZERO),             errmsg("division by zero")));
result = rint(c / i);
PG_RETURN_CASH(result);
}

Should be "int32 i = PG_GETARG_INT32(1);" just like cash_mul_int4().
