there may be other gcc versions that also suffer this fate.
The work-a-round is to change the DEBUG Makefile variable to either:
The readlines associated with problem are:
compile for speed: -O3
compile to debug: -g3
readline-4.1-5
readline2.2.1-2.2.1-2
readline-devel-4.1-5
One work-a-round is to compile calc WITHOUT readline. In the
Makefile be sure that:
USE_READLINE=
READLINE_LIB=
READLINE_INCLUDE=
i.e., these Makefile vars are empty.
If you must use readline, then an alternate work-a-round is to
change the DEBUG Makefile variable to either:
compile for speed: -O3 (or -O2 if you do not have -O3)
compile to debug: -g3 (or -g if you do not have -g3)
but not both.
See RH bug #57889 for details:

* There is a bug in gcc-2.95 that causes calc, when compiled with -O2,
to fail the regression test. The work-a-round is to compile with -O
or to use gcc-2.96 or later.
