/tset/ANSI.os/maths/pow/T.pow 4	Warning

	Test Information:
pow(0.0, -1.0) gave
RETURN VALUES: expected: -inf, observed: inf
    Bit Representation: expected value: \000\000\000\000\000\000\360\377
    Bit Representation: observed value: \000\000\000\000\000\000\360\177

************************************************************************

Isn't pow(0.0, -1.0) undefined?  From the looks of C99, pow(long
double x, long double y) may cause a domain error if x is zero and y
is less than or equal to zero.

Cheers,

Matt
