Ah, I see, it works. Then we end up with three solutions:
1) remove the pow(double,double) overload
2) add a specialization template <> pow(double,double)
3) add an extern "C" declaration to refer to the C library function
I don't have a strong preference, I would say that all solutions are
more or less equivalent. In the end, builtins are just reached in
different ways I guess, depending on the optimisations enabled.
Given that Paolo already OKed the solution 1), I would go for it.
I guess #1 and #2 involve forwarding through a template, whereas #3
avoids that and might give cleaner code without optimization. But
library design issues might be more important, so library folks should
make the call here.
