+From: Benjamin Barenblat <bbaren@google.com>
+Subject: Round a double multiplication before casting it to integer
+Forwarded: yes
+Applied-Upstream: https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/commit/60be12ed9822078970f05f3c560324184302df6b
+
+The code
+
+ static_cast<int>(x * y)
+
+(for double x and y) performs a double multiplication into a temporary
+that, by standard, may have excess precision. The subsequent cast to int
+discards the excess precision. However, the cast may examine the excess
+precision during conversion, producing surprising results like
+
+ static_cast<int>(1.7 * 10) == 16
+
+on certain systems. Correct this case by explicitly rounding 1.7 * 10
+before casting it.
+
+The author works at Google. Upstream applied this patch as Piper
+revision 378922064 and exported it to GitHub; the Applied-Upstream URL
+above points to the exported commit.
