Assuming they use the python warning framework, this should be
helpful to you:

http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0230/

In particular the -Wignore command line option.

However I would tend to agree with Dave here that suppressing the
warnings is not the best option. And using round() will not help you,
since round() still returns a float which is what the warnings are
complaining about, you need to use int() to get rid of them.
