Also: remove NewFloat - not needed anymore. Work-around for places
where has been used so far:

NewFloat(x, prec, mode) === new(Float).SetMode(mode).SetPrec(prec).SetFloat64(x)

However, if mode == ToNearestEven, SetMode is not needed. SetPrec
is needed if the default precision (53 after SetFloat64) is not
adequate.
