It seems like what is really needed is a numerical type that stores the
value and does calculations in log-space (i.e. operator* does addition,
operator/ does subtraction, pow does multiplication). Presumably it
would be defined as a template over the underlying type used for
storage.
I don't see why this needs to be or should be coupled to probabilities
in any way.
