Dear Serge,
on the VM mailing list, Levente pointed out, that this could also be related to some lib the VM uses (e.g., Freetype) that might change the rounding mode. I'll dig into it and give your idea a try and come back with the results.
I think it would be nice to have in Pharo 7. But before I want to make
