Subject: On systems where we do not have BN_ULLONG defined (most 64-bit
 systems), BN_mod_word() can return incorrect results if the supplied modulus
 is too big, so we need to fall back to BN_div_word.

Now that BN_mod_word may fail, handle errors properly update the man page.

Thanks to Brian Smith for pointing out these fixes from BoringSSL:
