Hi!

In accordance with its man-page entry, pow(3) will return 0 if
its second argument is not an integer. Why is that? What's the
reasoning and what is a workaround -- I'm trying to port an
application from Solaris, which uses pow(3) quite heavily...

Needless to say, Solaris' pow works properly for non-integer
arguments...

Thanks!
