Description:
------------
set a var using round, the other via value ... compare the vars .. same values but comparision returns false .. tried in php 4.3.1, 5.0.0-dev and 4.1.2 .. same problem in all versions ..

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
	$val = 1.11;
	echo "\$val: "; var_dump ($val);

	$p1 = $val * 100;
	$p2 = round ($val * 100);

	$p1 = (float)$p1;
	$p2 = (float)$p2;

	if ($p1 == $p2)
		echo "$p1 == $p2";
	else
		echo "$p1 != $p2";

	echo "\n";
	echo "\$p1: "; var_dump ($p1);
	echo "\$p2: "; var_dump ($p2);

?>

Expected result:
----------------
$val: float(1.11)
111 == 111
$p1: float(111)
$p2: float(111)


Actual result:

$p1: float(111)
