I suspect that replacing x^k by pow(x,k) in one place, will fix the
interpolation program,
where pow(a,b):= if (a=0)and(b=0) then 1 else a^b.
The disadvantage of RH's fix is that the global behavior of the
simplifier is changed
in two ways.
1. The simplification of powers is slowed down by having to make this
check everywhere there is a "^".
2. Any program that previously depended on the error message from 0^0,
will now not work the same.
