Quoting John Maddock:
The code should be exactly the same in the two cases: but is highly dependent on the accuracy of powl and expl
The results make sense then. I had implicitly assumed that the special functions were implemented from scratch and that you were relying only on basic arithmetic. Seems like my practice of elementary functions (where you are ultimately down to just polynomial evaluations and hence only need additions and multiplications) played tricks on me there :).
