-- require newer Decimal, math-functions, fixing inconsistent rounding
-  Decimal 0.5.1+ changed to banker's rounding (round to nearest even
-  number), and math-functions 0.3.3.0 (used by roi) fixed various
-  precision-related issues. Now we require the latest versions of these.
-  This was causing some functional test failures when building with old
-  GHCs/snapshots.
