I spent a few hours testing various ways of calculating this in Python.
The best I can get it to work is within +/- 1 of the values in pow_lut.
All but about 200 of the possible pairs of input values produce exactly
the same result.  I can maybe get it a little better, but I don't think
perfect is possible, short of doing the division in SSE.  Think this is
worth further pursuit, or should I get back to something else? :)
