Do not talk about "real" numbers; talk about "floats" or "floating point
...
numbers" instead; we have not described "reals" anywhere else in the
documentation, and this is not the place to change the story!

The addition of rint() (by Peter Schneider-Kamp; I forgot to mention
...
that before) in the previous patch has one problem; rint() is not in
the C math library on all platforms (e.g. not for VC++). Make it
conditional on HAVE_RINT.

Remove obsolete lines like this:

\setindexsubitem{(in module frobnitz)}
These are no longer needed when present before any other \setindexsubitem{}
in the module section. The indexsubitem is now set by \bimodindex and
\stmodindex.

returned by modf().
