not required by anything we ship. you can copy it over yourself if you're adding custom code that needs it.

Well, it's unfortunately used in /usr/local/bin/ping_hosts.sh

https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/usr/local/bin/ping_hosts.sh#L113 uses /usr/bin/bc and bc is a driver for bc.
See: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/blob/devel/usr.bin/bc/bc.y#L1192
So Jakub / Kill Bill / Doctor Notor is correct here, and this is a bug.
No idea why I can't take this out of "Duplicate or Not a bug" status. I've moved it to "Duplicate" (even though it isn't) because it is a bug.

Apparently nobody has noticed.
Just put both 'bc' and 'dc' on the build, and we'll be fine.
