What is so hard about implementing a pow intrinsic that CTFE can use?

It's one of those blocker bugs that's been there almost 10 years.
It's one that seems to engender lots of comments, but no action.
(BTW, there's a way to do it without the CTFE fix. One can use the approach I've
always used in the past for C, which is write a separate program to generate the
tables. This was used in the DMD build, and was gradually replaced with CTFE. It
still exists in the backend, which is still in C++.)
