There is a BSDL DC that replaces gnu DC. The >>> is annoying, but gone in
newer versions I believe.

Is this it? https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/bc
This bc also includes an implementation of dc in the
same binary, accessible via a symbolic link, which implements all FreeBSD and GNU
extensions. (If a standalone dc binary is desired, bc can be copied and renamed to dc.)
The ! command is omitted; I believe this poses security concerns and that such
functionality is unnecessary.

That's the one. I knew the guy's name started with a G.
How about OpenBSD's, though? That's ISC-licensed (bc.library has
potential issues but you can use NetBSD's
usr/src/external/bsd/bc/libmath.b instead, it serves the same purpose and
doesn't have a Caldera cloud over it).

Agreed. The copyright banner every time I run `bc` is excruciating.
The `-l` argument came up not too long ago elsewhere; someone asked
why `bc -l` is not the default. For those that don't know, `bc -l`
loads a library of math functions (sine/cosine, arctan, and a couple
of transcendentals) and sets the scale to 20 decimal points. It's very
useful, but I suspect the reason this wasn't the default is that
loading that library cost RAM and real cycles on a PDP-11 and for most
simple uses that wasn't necessary.

Back in the day (mid 70s), Brian Kernighan and others from MH used to come
down to udel and talk about unix. CA 1976, udel was an early licensee, or
so we were told.
One of the funniest talks Brian gave concerned looking up words in a
dictionary, said words being all combinations of words you can spell from
looking at a desk calculator upside down. It was a Thing in the 70s, along
with disco balls I guess.
Anyway, he showed what you got when you started up the hopelessly
cumbersome look-up-a-word-at-a-time-in-webster's program that attempted to
be interactive.
"When you start it, it prints out its name and its version -- like we care
-- " -- at the words "like we care", the room just exploded in laughter.
That program was the perfect foil.
Every time I see this kind of ">>>" output from reimplementations of
programs such as dc, my only reaction is "like we care" :-)

Supposedly https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/contrib/bc is kept up to date, so I’d suspect
the issue lies on the macOS side.

Probably because MacOS moved things around or is intent on breaking things?

Pretty much everything in the dc man page on my mac raises my hackles. Not
