What arch? I would expect this to show up on i386 but not x86_64,
since the latter has native division and libgcc functions won't be
needed. It could also be an issue of -O level if gcc decided to use
long division instead of bitshift to implement /16. Or it might be
something completely different.
If you could share the two versions of libfoo.so, a.out, and maybe
even libgcc.a, I can probably figure out what's going on.
