Wow, that is an interesting case.  The patch was applied to head and
backbranches, (so I didn't see it) but three days later reverted in back
branches, and after my date cut-off:

        commit f74d83b3034f830bd68489b4aba99a4dee29c565
        Author: Tom Lane <t...@sss.pgh.pa.us>
        Date:   Wed May 2 17:32:40 2018 -0400
        
            Revert back-branch changes in power()'s behavior for NaN inputs.
        
            Per discussion, the value of fixing these bugs in the back branches
            doesn't outweigh the downsides of changing corner-case behavior in
            a minor release.  Hence, revert commits 217d8f3a1 and 4d864de48 in
            the v10 branch and the corresponding commits in 9.3-9.6.

Added:

        Consistently return <literal>NaN</literal> for
        <literal>NaN</literal> inputs to <function>power()</literal>
        on older platforms (Dang Minh Huong)
