I replaced lines 3249 and 3250 with:

     version(OSX) {} else assert(isNaN(pow(one, dinf)));
     version(OSX) {} else assert(isNaN(pow(-one, dinf)));

to get std.math to unittest on osx.

I don't have access to osx.  I wrote those unittests recently, based on what the documentation in std.math said pow should do for the special cases, and they all pass on Windows.  Also, at the same time I did this, I only made modifications to pow() to loosen the types it accepts, not to change the meat of any function, so we're probably just uncovering bugs that have been around for a long time.

Perhaps osx's C pow() function is broken like the one on linux and the
version(linux) statement in pow() should be changed to include Mac OS also.
