[avr-gcc-list] Optimization for easy division

[Michael Tsao]

Does avr-libc automatically turn this:

uint8_t a = 8, b = 2, c = 0;
c = a / b; /* slow */

into this:

uint8_t a = 8, b = 2, c = 0;
c = a >> 1; /* fast */

?

Or should I keep hardcoding shifts for speed as I've done much of my 
programming life?
