It's mentioned several times on Yahoo's UserVoice pages, but they keep
saying they can't replicate the problem.

Are dividend adjusted quotes just subtracting the DPS payments from the historical prices which lowers the basis so that when you calculate the price percentage change it captures the the return from dividends?

I have always just added them back in, it can be a pain. I usually prefer to have the actual trade prices to I can calculate historical ratios. I had been having to pull from Yahoo to get the end of period stock price, which involves messing with dates. Gratefully Guru has it predefined,

Not subtracted. It's a proportional reduction throughout all of history.

For example, if a stock pays out a $1 dividend and was $100 on the close
before the ex-dividend date, all open, high, low, and close prices prior to
the ex-dividend date should be reduced by 1%.

Using adjusted prices means you don't NEED to add dividends back in. The
problem with adding dividends back in is that your prices are only good
from the point forward that you added all the dividends in. But if the
prices are adjusted historically for dividends, ALL prices are correct in
relation to each other. You don't need to worry if the drop from $100 to
$90 is a 10% reduction in stock market prices or a payout of dividends.

It's fine to get an end-of-period stock price, but you can't compare it to
any other end-of-period stock price unless you adjust for premiums.
Adjusted prices allow that comparison to be made directly. Besides, if you
use unadjusted prices, no splits should be applied either. In many cases, a
10% stock dividend is called an 11-for-10 stock split.
