I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean.  For example, if I enter
5*e^(i*180) while in polar degree mode I get 5*e^(-126.75969*i) out, and if
I enter the same thing while in rectangular degree mode I get -2.992-4.006i
while the answer should be just -5 (yes I'm using the <2nd><i>, not the
regular i).  I've written a little function to get around this, but it
still would be nice if it worked properly to begin with.
