Description b. 2024-05-09 21:15:10 UTC 
looking for differences between Calc and gnumeric I saw some  
questionable results:  
roundup of small values to digits like -309 shouldn't result  
in '0' but rather in a meaningful ERR, 
IMHO also roundup( 1.2E+308, -308 ) -> 1.2E+308 isn't correct, 
also round( 1.7E+308, -308) -> 1.7E+308 is questionaböe from 
a math POV.  

pls. be tolerant if 'me bad', that's always an option, e.g. 
my Calc too old or similar ...
