Hi,
by looking at the latest git code:

static const struct op operators[] ALIGN_PTR = {
#if ENABLE_FEATURE_DC_LIBM
    {"^",   power},
//    {"exp", power},
//    {"pow", power},
#endif
    {"%",   mod},
//    {"mod", mod},
    // logic ops are not standard, remove?
    {"and", and},
    {"or",  or},
    {"not", not},
    {"xor", eor},
    {"+",   add},
//    {"add", add},
    {"-",   sub},
//    {"sub", sub},
    {"*",   mul},
//    {"mul", mul},
    {"/",   divide},
//    {"div", divide},
    {"p", print_no_pop},
    {"f", print_stack_no_pop},
    {"o", set_output_base},
};


it seems to me that mod, add, sub, mul, div are disabled
and only %, +, -, *, / are supported.
Cannot say if simply uncommenting them restores
the previous functionality, could be worth a try.
Eventually if it works a patch for making them optional
(CONFIG_DC_LONG_OPS or the like) could be sent
to the list.

Hope this helps,

Ciao,
Tito
