Subject: bug#914: In CVS Emacs, calc-eval gives multiplication higher precidence than division
Date: Sun, 07 Sep 2008 12:06:38 -0400

In CVS Emacs, function calc-eval (in lisp/calc/calc.el) gives
multiplication higher precidence than division.  To reproduce, run
"emacs -q" and evaluate this form:

   (progn
     (require 'calc)
     (calc-eval "1 / 2 * 1000"))

The value of the above form is "5e-4" (as if operator '*' has higher
precidence than operator '/'), but it should be "500".
