the last line in this script makes gretl to crash: (gretl from today CVS on Ubuntu Linux 12.04)

Thanks, Ignacio: this is now fixed in CVS.

The crash was related to the fact that, with so few datapoints, the 5% and 95% percentiles are effectively undefined, and this was unhandled (my fault). Fun fact: this is one of the few fixes that was physically coded jointly by Allin and myself, cause we happen to be in the same room at the moment! :)
