For some unknown reasons these inverse functions didn't accept complex arguments in the HP-71B Math ROM. This is surprising because there is a lot of space available in the ROM (about 4KB) and the algorithms were well known by HP at the time since they are implemented in the HP-15C and in the HP-75C Math ROM too.
Using the HP-75C Math ROM source files as a guide to identify and document the algorithms, it has been surprisingly easy to implement the new functions in the HP-71B Math LEX after having the scalar real and complex routines properly documented.

This is the corresponding routine in the assembler code of release 2B7:
Code:

*             = sign(y,x)*log(1+(A-1)+sqr((A-1)*(A+1)) in 75's src
*      with sign(y,x)=sign(y) if y<>0, -sgn(x) if y=0
*      if doing acos(z), change sign of imag part

I couldn't agree more.

Thanks to the comments I can follow the source code even though I'm not familiar with the entry points.
Some of them can be guessed easily, like fdiv2, mp15s, ad15s, dv15s or sqr15.
The program is mostly a list of go-subroutine calls with a little bit of "real" assembler code sprinkled here and there.

To me that looks similar to the SysRPL code.
Entry points start with %% and instead of using assembler to deal with registers, it uses stack shuffling instructions.
Maybe not a surprise as both use the same algorithm.

I have to admit that I wasn't aware that the complex ACOS function was missing from the original HP-71B Math ROM.
This explains why I never got a response to my request.
I am very happy that I finally got it.
