Comment:
Okay, GHC's new !CodeGen kicks some serious behind. For Float we only get
a speedup for the Int-special versions (and for round, we should call out
to C). For Double, a few of the general versions (via Integer) run slower
than with 6.12, but everything is faster than the current implementation.
I still need to do a bit of Core-digging to see if I can fix the
regressions vs. 6.12.
Patch should be ready tomorrow or Wednesday.
