Ticket details:

Dear developers, when I run the following code:

int x=5; printf ("%d\n" , (int)pow(x,2)); printf ("%d\n" , (int)pow(5,2));

I get different results if working on: - Windows 7 and 10, gcc version: gcc
(tdm-1) 5.1.0 from last MinGW was the same some years ago with previous
versions: the results are 24 and 25; - Linux, many distro, many gcc versions:
the results are 25 and 25. To me, the Windows answer should be the same as the
first argument is int 5 in both cases. Could you please give a clarification. I
wasn't able to find any justification for my univ. students. Thank you in
advance

Claus
