Description:
------------
I have some troubles with following round() function.
I think the operation +1 produces the problem.




Reproduce code:
---------------
var_dump(round(65536.335,2));
var_dump(round(65535.335 + 1,2));


Expected result:
----------------
float(65536.34)
float(65536.34)


Actual result:
--------------
float(65536.34)
float(65536.33)

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.
