template T(){
  enum a = pow(3.0, 6);
  enum b = pow(2, 4.0);
}

unittest
{
  alias T!() t;
}

compiling that I get:

/home/b/phobos/std/math.d(2369): Error: Cannot convert &real to ushort* at
compile time
/home/b/phobos/std/math.d(3292):        called from here: isNaN(y)
/home/b/phobos/std/math.d(3403):        called from here: impl(x,cast(real)y)
/home/b/phobos/std/math.d(3239):        called from here: pow(cast(real)x,y)
t.d(478):        called from here: pow(2,4)
t.d(485): Error: template instance units.T!() error instantiating


I guess technically it's math.isNaN() that's failing?
