Subject: Math::BigFloat -> bceil() returns -1
$x -> bceil() for -1 < $x < 0 returns -0. The docs says that -0 should never be returned. A simple example showing the bug: $ perl -MMath::BigFloat -wle 'print Math::BigFloat -> new("-0.4") -> bceil()' -0 The bug has been present in all versions at least back to, and including, the distribution Math-BigInt-1.55.

bint() has the same problem: $ perl -MMath::BigFloat -wle 'print Math::BigFloat -> new("-0.4") -> bint()' -0
