I've verified this, and it is definitely a bug. I've reported it to WMS.
I also noticed that while x^(1/c) doesn't get translated properly,
x^(2/c) and x^(a/c) *do* get translated properly. As a temporary cludge
if you need to have Maple generate a bunch of fortran code, try using
something like:
fortran(x^(one/c))
and then doing a text string search-and-replace on the file that you
wrote the results to, to convert instances of 'one' into '1'.
