Glad I'm not crazy.  Recorded what I thought were steps to reproduce
with gnome-calculator 1:3.8.1-0ubuntu1:


Enter:
5994.34 * .50
see 5994.34 x .50 displayed
hit enter
result: 2997.17

^Z undo

see 5994.34 x .50 displayed
hit enter
result: 1498.585

^Z undo

see 5994.34 x .50 displayed
hit enter
result: 749.2925


... however it seems like state has to go crazy as indicated by the "5994.34" 
in "5994.34 x .50" becoming boldface like an unedited result - making the 
actual outcome equivalent to hitting return without editing the formula to 
repeat the last operation (*.50), and meaning the above steps failed to 
reproduce it after some fiddling where it was "not in the mood" to mistreat the 
formula as an untouched result as apparently indicated by showing boldface.

Nasty.
