java.text.NumberFormat does not round decimal numbers correctly.

Example:

    double x = 0.00159999;
    NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getDefault();
    nf.setMaximumDecimalCount(4);
    System.out.println(nf.format(x));

The above prints 0.0015 but should print 0.0016
Using either setMaximumDecimalCount and/or setMinumumDecimalCount has the same effect (i.e. incorrect rounding)
