I suppose the flaw does not exist in TI-30. Why would they want to mimic
an old scientific calculator, that can't do basic arithmetic right?
Besides, the manual page of xcalc tells (as for the TI-30 mode): 'It
should be noted that the operators obey the  standard  rules  of
precedence.  Thus,  entering  "3+4*5="  results  in  "23",  not  "35".'
(HP-10C mode on the other hand does has completely different approach in
the order of operations, and xcalc emulates it only, if it is started
with -rpn option. )

The bug exists in Ubuntu  14.04, too.
