A new version is available which fixes some bugs.

- Fix bug: revise the way that list arguments to user-defined
  functions are handled, to avoid potential namespace 
  collisions
- Add menu item: Variable/Normality test

  last model

- Fix bug: incorrect generation of NAs when doing "genr unitdum" 
  on a sub-sampled panel dataset
- Add new panel data functions: pmax, pmin, pnobs
- Internal: recode parts of the gretl GUI to avoid dependence
  on deprecated GTK APIs
- Speed-ups for loops containing genr commands
- Several fixes for reading and writing gretl session files
- Function packages: add facility to append a sample script
- Enhancements for GUI function-packager
- File dialogs: try to ensure that focus falls back to the right
  window when such windows are closed

I just committed a gretl-1.7.6 ebuild to portage.

Thanks,
