Actually, it is

  #+ATTR_LATEX: :float t

According to the manual, the first described value for :float is:

     =E2=88=92 =E2=80=98t=E2=80=99: if you want to use the standard =E2=80=
=98figure=E2=80=99 environment.  It is
       used by default if you provide a caption to the image.

That's not quite true. It can be anything but nil, depending on what you
want (e.g., :float wrap).

Patches welcome.
