[docs] [issue21179] Rounding half to even

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson added the comment:

Yep, 2.7 does round-ties-away-from-zero.  There's even special code for that: the underlying machinery does a round-ties-to-even, and then there's a hack on top of that to convert to round-ties-away-from-zero.

Looks like this error went unnoticed for quite a while.

Now fixed.  Thanks for the report!
