7th Edition?
It appears in the First Edition manual, and according to A Quarter
Century of Unix, it's even older than that.

There's a binary of dc from either 1st or 2nd Edition in the PUPS Archive:
-r---wxrw- 0/0 6846 Apr 14 06:50 1973 bin/dc
Wouldn't that be the Third Edition with that timestamp? I won't
comment again about the permissions.
