[Coco] Basic09 6309 version

[Bill Pierce]

The 6809 version of basic09 would not have a "divq" instruction as that's exclusive to the 6309 processor, so it's only logical that if the divq function of VCC is bugged, the 6809 software should run fine. This only seems to be happening when that instruction is encountered.
