--- Comment #7 from Manu <turkeyman at gmail.com> ---
I'm changing this to blocker.
Seriously, it's gone on long enough. 5 years apparently according to this bug
report.

It is actually blocking a whole bunch of projects. They are literally sitting
waiting for this bugfix. We can't generate compile-time data/tables without
this super-important function. There's no substitute or workaround. We need to
be able to evaluate non-linear functions in CTFE.

log() works! pow() is the rather more frequently occurring compliment.
