calc-check-defines only does anything when calc-define has a property
list, which isn't always the case.  But calc-do-calc-eval also calls
calc-create-buffer, and always has.

But the *Calculator* buffer is not shown by default, so what problems
does this cause?

Are you sure?
When I get the chance I'll try it out on older versions of emacs, but do
you have a specific version where the *Calculator* buffer wasn't
created?

I'll look at it when I get the chance.
