#5782: Failure of __pow__ in RDF for noninteger powers of  zero
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  kbaker            |       Owner:  somebody          
     Type:  defect            |      Status:  new               
 Priority:  minor             |   Milestone:  sage-3.4.1        
Component:  basic arithmetic  |    Keywords:  RDF, __pow__, zero
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Positive noninteger powers of RDF(0) give nan rather than zero:
 {{{
   sage: RDF(0)^.5
   nan

   sage: RDF(0)^(1/2)
   nan
 }}}

 In contrast, noninteger powers of CDF(0) have the correct value:
 {{{
   sage: CDF(0)^.5
   0

   sage: CDF(0)^(1/2)
   0
 }}}
