Re: "Behaviour of round changed?". Pardon my curiosity -- what do you use to represent money in your code? It seems to me that the choices are between: 1) BigDecimal 2) Rational 3) A custom class To my way of thinking, if you are multi-currency, you almost certainly want #3; but otherwise it's down to personal preference? I plumped for BigDecimal, but I wonder if it would have been easier on me if I had gone for Rational instead?
