It's in spamassassin, not exim. Spamassassin reports a score of 4.6 for
a message that scored 4.501, for instance. $spam_score_int is still 45
in this case. There have been long threads on the spamassassin-users
list about the pros and cons of rounding up versus rounding down, and
I'm sure a quick google search will turn them up if you're interested in
the details.
