1. Bc(1) has the idea that the last function letter
   is 'z', corresponding to decimal 26 in dc(1)'s
   stable[]. However, dc only gives an error for
   undefined functions up to LASTFUN ... _octal_ 026.

   Which is correct? My bets are with bc.

2. Why is there no mention of <n> register notation
   for the [SsLl:;<>=] commands in dc's man page?

3. Is it wrong to love bc(1) for being a compiler? ;)

Thanks,
  Anthony
