[Gretl-users] Spearman Rank correlation

Hi, I've noticed a strange behaviour of GRETL with Rank Correlation. I tried to get the value of the Spearman \rho with two series of about 15000 obs and I got \rho=-2038.292267 (???). If I do the same with R(even launched inside GRETL) or Stata I get a more reasonable 0.5715. Am I missing something? How is the Spearman's \rho defined in Gretl?
