Comment(by allison):
For the record: whiteknight's reasoning is persuasive and I'm now in favor
deprecating pow & bignum. The list of relevant vtable functions:
{{{
PMC* get_bignum()
void set_bignum_int(INTVAL value)
void set_bignum_num(FLOATVAL value)
void set_bignum_str(STRING* value)
PMC* pow(PMC* value, PMC* dest)
PMC* pow_int(INTVAL value, PMC* dest)
PMC* pow_float(FLOATVAL value, PMC* dest)
void i_pow(PMC* value) :write
void i_pow_int(INTVAL value) :write
void i_pow_float(FLOATVAL value) :write
}}}
