One point I maybe should have stressed: these operations with specific 
rounding modes are there as optimizations. If you don't care about 
performance, using a kernel like Simple_cartesian<Gmpq> should work and 
not use any floating point (no problem with rounding then). I say "should" 
because I don't know anything about the boolean operation package.
