Re: newlib?: pow function can produce incorrect results.

I had some more time to look into this and when the
simple C program I mentioned earlier uses variables

certainly don't understand what is going on. I would
have expected pow to be pass-by value which should
make the two calls identical from a system standpoint,
but the results imply something different. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

$ gcc -fno-builtin ./pow-error.c
