indeed it isn't! but plotting the combined impulse responses with their
confidence error is somewhat slow! Maybe this is more a gnuplot concern
than gretl's and I don't know if it can be fixed!
That's slow because it depends on a complicated bootstrapping
routine. It could maybe be tweaked a little for speed but
basically it's just an inherently time-consuming operation:
the VECM has to be estimated hundreds of times.
