Can somebody run ACOS(2) on the 15C?

HP-15C S/N:2435A04214
Code:
FIX 9
SF 8
2
ACOS     [X: 0]
Re<>Im   [X: 1.316957897]

41Z Module, any revision:

Z, 2 = 2 + j0
ZACOS = 0 + 1.316957897E0

When I programmed the 41Z I had to delve into this one at length. I even found a bug in Free42 (that I was using to check the results) which Thomas duly corrected very promptly, interestingly in the inverse trigonometric functions. I don't remember how I came up with the right value selection, but it must have been by applying the branch definition criteria all across the chain of intermediate calculations; how else.
