Subject: [PATCH] exp() silently evaluated as a no-op
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

"exp" was also listed as a scientific-notation alias ("123456 in
exp"). Phrases register first-come-first-served, and that alias was
registered before the exp() function, so the function itself never
got the phrase — exp(1) parsed as a bare (1) and returned 1. Drop
exp from the scientific-notation aliases; sci/exponent/exponential
still work.
