It is 1 on SunOS 5.8 as well. It's probably a POSIX
standard (not that I can easily tell since search engines
are still stuck in the alphanumeric stone age ;-),
since it is both "right" and "wrong". Anything raised to
the zeroth power is defined as 1. Yet anything mulitplied
by zero is 0. So they picked something and ran with it?
