Please verify that the arithmetic parsing works correctly
for TODO ncap61. ncap seems to compute the wrong
value relative to a hand calculator. Since this is a matter
of parser correctness, it takes priority over the memory
cleanup.
Thanks,
Charlie

That's great. When we find bugs such as this one that produce
incorrect, but not obviously incorrect, answers, I like to alert
users what the scop of the problem was so they can make an
informed decision on whether to upgrade. What was the
scope of the problem? Under what circumstances would
this bug show up?
Thanks,
Charlie

Hi Charlie,
It is quite a dramatic bug
Any pow(var1,Var2) or var1^var2 simply returned var1
pow(var_xpr,scv_xpr) and pow(scv_xpr,var_xpr) are working fine
