Thanks Alexey, your observation is correct, I'll fix my patch. We cannot 
replace bc/dc for 8.X, however, because re's decision was to defer this 
change after the code freeze. In the meantime, all of your input is very 
important so that we can polish possible remaining items. Thanks for 
taking your time to try BSD bc/dc.

Gabor
