Are you aware of any professional crypto algorithm, including
hashes, that uses modulo operations by modulo that is neither
power-of-two nor at least 192-bit wide?
I was involved with the optimization of DFC, the AES condidate from
CERN:
It uses a fixed prime just above 2^64 as the modulus (2^64+13 afair),
and that resulted in a very simple reciprocal, i.e. no need for a DIV
opcode.

Since DFC lost, I suppose that even ignoring reciprocal optimization
the answer to my question is 'No'.
