Dear Allin,
the error is still present.
What kind of other information is necessary in order to eliminate this bug?

Sometime ago there was a discussion about implementing some kind of
automatic testing of Gretl, on Ubuntu 14.04 I can test the export/import
functions with other programs (Stata, R, Python, Octave, Julia, not Ox).
Best regards,
Mihai
