It's generating an idivl, which gives you an exception if the (signed) result is too large (a.k.a. integer overflow). Did you notice your compiler warning "this decimal constant is unsigned only in ISO C90"? ;) +2147483648 is: 10000000 00000000 00000000 00000000. -2147483648 is too large to be represented by a signed integer (as it would be ~(+2147483648) + 1, which gives once again: 10000000 00000000 00000000 00000000), so the result would be too large to be represented as a signed integer, too.
