this report has been filed here: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcalctool/+bug/602238 If you open gcalctool, change the mode from basic to any other (advanced, financial, etc) close gcalctool and open it again it will always start in basic mode.
using gcalctool 5.31.4 in ubuntu maverick work fine for me, if I close in advanced and open again always start in advanced mode, the same for other options.
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report. The fix was to call g_settings_sync() before quitting.
