Complex valued pow gives stackoverflow error

[GiggleLiu]

julia> using ForwardDiff: Dual

julia> x = Complex(Dual(2, 1.0), Dual(3.0, 0.0))
Dual{Nothing}(2.0,1.0) + Dual{Nothing}(3.0,0.0)*im

julia> x^2

The second point.

The behaviour on ForwardDiff#master, i.e. 0.11-DEV which includes #481, is this:

julia> using ForwardDiff: Dual

julia> x = Complex(Dual(2, 1.0), Dual(3.0, 0.0))
Dual{Nothing}(2.0,1.0) + Dual{Nothing}(3.0,0.0)*im

julia> x^2
Dual{Nothing}(-5.0,4.0) + Dual{Nothing}(12.0,6.0)*im

Since it doesn't stackoverflow anymore I will close this.
