Comment:

 Let's move this forward. Please see my branch `bug19130` for the fix
 suggested by teor in comment:3 .

 It changes the check to:
 {{{
   if (INT64_MAX - divisor < number - 1)
     return INT64_MAX;
 }}}

 Are there additional check that need to be added?

 Also, should we fix the other `round_*_to_next_multiple_of()` functions
 which have a similar pattern? They deal with unsigned integers where an
 overflow is not UB; but maybe we should not cause overflows on purpose
 anyway.
