[Gretl-devel] bug which is new in 1.7.4

Hi,

I have a relatively complicated bootstrap script which works with 1.7.3 
(I just re-confirmed this) but stops working with 1.7.4. Gretl 1.7.4 
just hangs (becomes unresponsive forever, like being in an infinite 
loop) and has to be killed by the OS. All this is on Windows XP, I 
cannot test on Linux before the weekend (if that's needed).

I haven't had time to pin down the bug yet, but I suspect it may have to 
do with the 'resample' changes that were introduced in 1.7.4. I'm using 
the resample command with matrices (well, the pre-1.7.4 usage).

I haven't tested a recent snapshot yet, should I? I may be able to test 
some more this afternoon (Central European time).

cheers,
sven
