If you use exponentials in your FORTRAN code, you should avoid
linking in floating point hardware support. The functions will return
garbage if the exponet is any larger than 2.

Here is a test program you can verify with:


	program powtest
	integer exponet
	real base
	real result

	base = 2.0
	do 10 exponet=1,10
	result = base**exponet
	print *,base,'**',exponet,'=',result
10	continue
	end


This problem does not occur when using the pow function in c.
