Description:
------------
I'm running the current RHEL rpm php 4.3.9 i386.






Reproduce code:
---------------
printf(ceil(0.05*100)/100); //Returns 0.05
printf(ceil(0.06*100)/100); //Returns 0.06
printf(ceil(0.07*100)/100); //Returns 0.08 <-- Wrong
printf(ceil(7));            //Returns 7
printf(ceil(0.08*100)/100); //Returns 0.08
printf(ceil(0.14*100)/100); //Returns 0.15 <-- Wrong
printf(ceil(0.21*100)/100); //Returns 0.21

Expected result:
----------------
0.05
0.06
0.07
7
0.08
0.14
0.21

Actual result:
--------------
0.05
