Comment(by kcrisman):
Nice, but does it actually fix the examples provided?
{{{
sage: exp(a)^(1/2)
sqrt(e^a)
}}}
I guess that's okay. But
{{{
sage: exp(a)^(1/3)
e^a^(1/3)
sage: exp(a^(1/3))
e^(a^(1/3))
}}}
I think there are missing parentheses in the first example, particularly
because it's not typeset. Even if that is a convention, which I'm not so
sure of, the dictum is that it's better to be explicit.
I also get a doctest failure (not mentioned in the Pynac upgrade ticket)
in product and quotient rule differentiation in calculus/tests.py, but it
looks like that's the one in #6524, so it's properly speaking another
issue, I guess.
