I know this imply more backward-incompatibilities than the current

an error, but may be easier to display a warning in them ¿isn't it?

While I'm all for a cleanup along Ignacio's lines (and maybe more, as I
mentioned before), I'm also against script-breaking changes, as you
know. These changes seem to be quite disruptive.
AFAIK there is a general idea floating around to have a release at some
point with a lot of backward incompatibilities, and of course also a lot
of cleanups. Jack started a wiki page about it. Maybe it's time to make
some concrete plans for gretl 2.0 or whatever it will be called? Like
for the next gretl conference, or 02/02 next year...
cheers,
