Did you also try with v0.96?

Can you show me an example? If it is a bug somewhere in breqn I want  
it to be fixed there even if it only shows up in a few places.

I cannot reproduce it here with

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{breqn}
\begin{document}
\begin{dmath}
f(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(k)}(c)}{k!}(x-c)^{k}
= f(c)+f'(c)(x-c) +\frac{f''(c)}{2!}(x-c)^{2}
+ \frac{f^{(3)}(c)}{3!}(x-c)^{3}+\cdots\end{dmath}
\end{document}

Glad to help. And now that breqn is actively maintained I wish to keep  
in contact with people using it for projects such as this so that we  
can fix bugs and get new features in there when needed.
