Hi Gilles,
While working on MATH-1047, I wondered about the usefulness of those
two methods. Excluding the trivial case (base=|1|), the result will
overflow as soon as the exponent is large

Hello.
While working on MATH-1047, I wondered about the usefulness of those
two methods. Excluding the trivial case (base=|1|), the result will
overflow as soon as the exponent is larger than 31, when base=|2|,
and sooner the larger the base.
Hence, the methods amount to syntactic sugar to spare
