ComplexField.power gives invalid return values for negative integer reals with a real power

Question

Example:

ComplexField.power(Complex(-3.0, 0.0), 0.5)

This results in a complex result where both the real and imaginary parts are NaN.

Workaround:

ComplexField(Complex(-3.0, 0.0), Complex(0.5, 0.0))
