Not so weird. 
First, is -norm()- documented as a function in your version of Stata? You should have checked that out first. 
Second, -norm()- used to be part of Stata, and it's still there under version control. 
. version 9 : di norm(.6)
.72574688
. di normal(.6)
.72574688
There is a slow shift towards more meaningful function names in Stata. If do-files and programs declare a -version-, as programmers are clearly advised, then nothing will be broken.

It is so weird,  I'm working on oprobit model using Stata 11.
The problem arrive when I try to compute predicted probabilities
against the variables of the model. I never got this error before, any
suggestion?
 di norm(_b[_cut1]-_b[Gender]*1)
unknown function norm()
r(133);
 di norm(_b[/cut1]-_b[Gender]*1)
unknown function norm()
r(133);
