This idiom will now work OK. (It's no longer necessary to quote the
expression "x * y", the workaround I mentioned yesterday.)
Also, I cannot figure out how to reliably replicate this. But
sometimes gretl terminates unexpectedly on the second time a script
is run when something (I am not sure what) is wrong with a
genseries() call.
In looking into this I found a possible cause of flakiness in
genseries(), which should also be fixed now (CVS and snapshots).
