It was a fascinating read -- I always wondered how tgmath does its magic.
But I guess my response to him would be...
#1. Eh. I think there are far worse evils in the world.
#2. I'll make sure to pass the proper function name next time I pass a
library function. ;-)
#3. Definitely a problem. But still. It's a problem I can live with until
the ISO committee releases C19 to fix it.
A terrific read -- thanks for posting it. Actually, I went through a few of
his other blogs and love them all, even though I find myself disagreeing
with him on many other points.
I can't believe more people don't comment on his writings.

How VBA rounds a number depends on the number's internal representation.
You cannot always predict how it will round when the rounding digit is 5.
If you want a rounding function that rounds according to predictable rules,
you should write your own.
