 Replying to [comment:12 jrf]:
 > I FULLY understand the problem and the underlying intricacies of
 floating point calculations, but by your response you show that YOU don't.

 Your suggested solution indicated the opposite:

 > Otherwise, an alternative solution would be:
 > {{{
 > <?php
 > $args['total_pages'] = (int) round( ceil( $args['total_items'] /
 $args['per_page'] ), 0); // Using round to prevent floating point issues.
 > }}}


 You answered none of my questions about comment:10. Accept the patch or
 don't, I can work around the bug.
