Dividing Series of Decimal objects by Decimal raises AttributeError

[j-chmielewski]

This worked fine with pandas 0.15:

In [24]: import pandas as pd
In [25]: from decimal import Decimal
In [26]: s = pd.Series([Decimal(10)] * 10)
In [27]: s / Decimal(5)
Out[27]: 
0    2
1    2
2    2
3    2
4    2
5    2
6    2
7    2
8    2
9    2
dtype: object

When I use 0.16.0, it raises:

I am not a big fan of Decimal, but I suppose should regain compat for this. pull-requests welcome.
