It turns out that round function that is defined in cephes/round.c, is 
never called. When I renamed round to cephes_round, and modified cephes.h 
and _cephesmodule.c accordingly, correct round functions is called and all 
special tests pass succesfully.

But before applying this patch, I would like to understand why cephes 
round function in not effective. Anyone have any ideas?
