This seems to be a client-server problem. If you download the entire
fedstl database and look at the series they're OK, but something
has gone wrong with downloading individual series.
The other issue you mention (wrong stuff in the function package
window where the author's name should be) is also a client-server
thing. I'll look into both.
Actually, how are these data retrieved from the FRED database?
See utils/FRED in the gretl source tree.
