Sounds good to me; thanks. I assume you know about doing the right thing with infinities and NaNs and with signed zeros. What implementation would you use? 'round' is trickier that it might appear at first, due to problems with internal rounding. Even 'trunc' is a bit tricky, since trunc(-0.0) should yield -0.0, not 0.0.
