Ahh right forgot about that - we hook up the safe log2 version for LG2 tgsi
opcode, but use the unsafe version for pow.
I think we did the lg2 safe version for d3d10 initially, since in gl it
traditionally didn't really matter. And pow doesn't exist in d3d10.
I suppose we could switch that if it's really worth it (too bad the special
values require 3 comparisons, 3 selects).
