Hm, even trying Listing 1 from the gretl + MPI guide (wrapped inside an
mpi block) fails for me on the latest snapshot, whereas it runs OK
(only) if I comment out the following two lines at the top:
set use_dcmt off # or not?
set seed 12337
Is there a difference between an mpi block and directly running this
stuff in the gretlmpi program?
Yes, "use_dcmt" is specific to gretlmpi. If you want to turn off dcmt
for an MPI block, use the --single-rng option.
