Description:
------------
One bit is lost when using typed parameters function.

This occurs for 2^18-2^19.

Test script:
---------------
class TypeHintEvil
{
    private $num;
    public function getNum(): int
    {
        return $this->num;
    }
    public function setNum(int $num): void
    {
        $this->num = $num;
    }
}
$evil = new TypeHintEvil();
$evil->setNum(4860.98 * 100);

echo $evil->getNum(); //486097

Expected result:
----------------
486098

Actual result:
--------------
486097

Floating point values have a limited precision. Hence a value might
not have the same string representation after any processing. That also
includes writing a floating point value in your script and directly
printing it without any mathematical operations.

If you would like to know more about "floats" and what IEEE
754 is, read this:

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

irrelevant

php -d precision=-1 -r "echo (4860.98 * 100);"
486097.99999999994

that casted to int without round is 486097, case closed
