I'll fix all this issues tonight

Ok, I'll try to include round() function ASAP.
About r.mapcalc functionality. We plan to improve plugin in future,
but unfortunatelly now I haven't much time (need to complete one project).
As result I can't say how quick I can add this stuff. I'll add your request to
the TODO and implement it later.

RasterCalc should work with both QGIS, standalone and Osgeo4w if all
required modules are present. Required modules are: numpy, osgeo.gdal
(Python bindings to GDAL) and pyparsing.

As far as I know numpy and Python bindings to GDAL are already present
in standalone QGIS. So if you want to use RasterCalc with standalone
QGIS you only need to download and install pyparsing into QGIS python
folder.

Hope this helps. If you have any other questions feel free to email me.
