[New-bugs-announce] [issue29160] `pow` with three int arguments works like it had two arguments

[Pavel Chuvakhov]

New submission from Pavel Chuvakhov:

Standard `pow` function of three integer arguments should result in a reminder `(x**y) % z`. It seems that `pow(x,y,z)` ignores `%z` operation if type(z) is not `int`. This happens also in the cases when `z` has type numpy.int32, numpy.int64, etc. I consider such a behavior of `pow` as a bug to be fixed.

Thank you for your attantion, guys!
Best wishes, Pavel.
