Hmm, yeah, it gets optimized out on x86-64. The issue is reproducible
on any platform with -O0.

This will work, but it will give a libm dependency to all the tools.
util.c currently tries not to do that:
/* emulate ceil() without having to bring-in -lm and always be >= 1 */
*val = t;
if (*val < t)
*val += 1;
I think that just adding an unnecessary -lm is more of a tidiness issue
than anything else. One way to avoid it is to split the -lm deps out
from util.c / json_print.c to like util_math.c / json_print_math.c. That
way they will be in an .o of their own, and won't be linked in unless
the binary in question needs the code. Then the binaries that do call it
can keep on linking in -lm like they did so far.
Thoughts?
