I had a second look into math.h, but I don't find any reason why round_up
could overflow. Can you give a hint please?
#define round_up(x, y) ((((x)-1) | __round_mask(x, y))+1)
                                                     ^^^^^

That +1 can overflow
But that would be a unsigned long long overflow. I considered this to
not be relevant.
Why not? It still makes nents 0 and still causes a bad bug
