Here's an example script:
<script>
function test(void)

return ...
end function

test()
</script>

The first time you run it, gretl correctly complains about a syntax
error. The next time it wrongly complains about "You can't define a
function within a function", obviously because it is still "inside" the
function body, not having reached "end function" before.
