Josef,

A previous upgrade attempt [1] showed that bc version 1.07.1 not only 
needs ed in the host (a regression from 1.06) but also shows a Parallel 
Make Race that requires unsetting PARALLEL_MAKE variable. I contacted 
the upstream maintainer and he is aware of this situation and has 
developed and tested a version 1.07.2, (however is not available for 
download yet). The upgrade was delayed for this reason (more details in 
the patch comments thread).

That said, Is there any urgent need for the upgrade to 1.07.1?

On a side note, I believe bc 1.07.1 license should be GPLv3+ & LGPLv3 
only, unless I'm missing something.

Regards

Jose
