Very nice counterxample, Sven, kudos for that. Let me think about it.
In fact this bug also affects the dropcoll() built-in function:
<hansl>
nulldata 4
series z = 0
series x = 1 | zeros($nobs - 1,1)
list X = z x
D = dropcoll(X)
list print D
</hansl>
So yeah, we need to give this proper consideration.
