They're not complex numbers. They're real numbers - and I think its safe
to say that FLT is not true over the reals.

The problem with the complexes is that you can't talk about "positive"
complex numbers. So the +N*i, -N*i, 0 for odd powers.

It think for non-zer Gaussian integers (real and imaginary parts both
integral) its still an open question - but know true for small powers.
This MathOverflow question gives some details:
