to convert floats back into integers again, controlling how rounding happens).
Ironically, that last one is the one we already *do* have.

As long as you're OK with "banker's rounding", printf does it.
As long as you are ok with your script breaking because of LC_NUMERIC
local using a different decimal symbol like a comma in French.
