------- Comment #4 from kargl at gcc dot gnu dot org 2007-02-17 21:10 -------
After looking at this a little bit, I think we may want to
change the error message to report the invalid integer exponent
value and document that INT_MIN <= e <= INT_MAX. Why? Well,
other than the special values of 1 and 0, the evaluation of
x**e will exceed the range of x.
