Here's the follow-up, which I'm only posting for curiosity value.
It's a bit of a hack, possibly buggy, and needs more thought about

Subject: [PATCH] gdb: Make gdb.Value division consistent with Python
In Python 3.x dividing integers does not perform integer division, so
make gdb.Value behave the same way when built with Python 3.x or later.
