This appears to be solved in KDE 4.2.85 (aka beta1), KCalc correctly
states 0^0=nan (not a number aka undefined)

For those falling into the trap: Google states 0^0=1..., so does
gcaltool, but there is no real consensus about the matter, as even Math
faculties around the globe give contradictory results...

Conclusion: there is *no* consensus amongst the scholars. and this
discussion is more than 150 years old, so leaving it undefined is
certainly more secure than a definition on which there is no agreement.
