Not here; but then we are using different versions of calc.
Another way to fix the problem without messing with the source is to
put an extra space after the "=> ". Right now, with
% $f + g => $
after calc finds the "=> ", it is looking at the "$", which causes the
problems. So there shouldn't be (and aren't here) problems if you
used
% $f + g => $

I would guess that the terminal %Embed somehow convinces calc to skip
activating that formula. But I can't say for sure.

It looks like someone should file a bug report; I'll do it if you
don't want to.
