Fair enough.

I'm not keen on the name. Does anyone else think float_round_nearest_inf is a
bett
IEEE754-2008 specifies a new rounding mode:
"roundTiesToAway: the floating-point number nearest to the infinitely
precise result shall be delivered; if the two nearest floating-point
numbers bracketing an unrepresentable infinitely precise result are
equally near, the one with larger magnitude sha
