Comment(by was):

 The problem is in the function __pow__ in sage/rings/integer.pyx.  There
 we find:
 {{{
         try:
             nn = PyNumber_Index(n)
         except TypeError:
             try:
 }}}
 I think PyNumber_Index(53.0) is the long "53".    Thus to change this as
 you wish, that code must be changed.
