Re: round doesn't seem to work correctly

I think that round might not be working correctly for numbers that end with "2.5".

Prelude> round 2.5 2

This is correct according to the Haskell'98 report, and all the other Haskell implementations agree with Hugs. Section 6.4.6: "round x returns the nearest integer to x, the even integer if x is equidistant between two integers." Regards, Malcolm
