You probably use LaTeX with the old font selection scheme, where
\cal acts as an font change and its proper use is {\cal L}. Try 
{\cal e} and you'll get \rceil.

In the new font selection scheme, \cal is defined (more conveniently) to have
an argument and to be used as \cal{L}.

Remedy:
\let\oldcal=\cal
\renewcommand{\cal}[1]{{\oldcal #1}}

Yours, J"org Knappen.
