Hum, please don't revert this change. I spent a lot of days to write pytime.c/.h.
My patches add more unit tests to datetime, to test the exact rounding mode.

The rounding mode of microseconds only impact a very few people. The rounding mode changed in 3.3, again in 3.4 and again in 3.5. This issue is the first bug report. So I think it's fine to modify 3.4.x and 3.5.x.
