I want to use a custom pow function (e.g. the one from the C standard library,
or from Tango) instead of the one in std.math, but a^^b is rewritten into
std.math.pow(a, b) which makes this difficult to accomplish. I can work around
it by using a static method like so:

struct std
{
    struct math
    {
        static auto pow(real a, real b);
    }
}

But I'd rather not have to do that (it breaks std imports, for example). Can we
have ^^ rewritten into a simple pow?
