Ok, the necessary files are attached; probably needless to say, the 
frontend script ("kpsw_testfrontend.inp") should be run with the other 
files in the same directory (or somewhere else where gretl will find 
them), and then gretl 1.7.4 will hang. For comparison, with gretl 1.7.3 
the pre-configured 50 bootstrap replications only take a couple of 
seconds on my computer, so after ten seconds you can already be pretty 
sure it will not come back.

BTW, the latest snapshot doesn't change anything, as expected.

Good luck for the hunting!

Sven
