=begin
SImilar to the issue here [[http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/3803]], BigDecimal::ROUND_HALF_DOWN does not respect all the digits involved in the rounding of a number. For example:

(({BigDecimal("1.51").round(0, BigDecimal::ROUND_HALF_DOWN) == BigDecimal("2")})) returns false because it is ignoring the "1". The same fix that was done for ROUND_HALF_EVEN will need to be done here. I believe it has already been fixed in 1.9.3dev, so it should only need to be backported to 1.9.2 and 1.8.7.

Issue 3803 already handles this case. This issue can be closed with a reference to 3803.
