This problem doesn't occur with version 0.7.9 so it would seem to have already been fixed.

When attempting to rename variables via syntax (MODIFY VARS command), I accidentally specified a variable that did not exist. PSPP 0.6.2 crashed rather than showing an error message.

In the syntax below var80u did not exist.

MODIFY VARS
/RENAME=(var453u var456u var462u var459u var477u var474u var471u var468u var465u var486u var483u var480u=Vwdw1bnu Vwdw1cnu Vwdw1dnu Vwdw1enu Vwdw1fnu Vwdw1gnu Vwdw1hnu Vwdw1inu Vwdw1jnu Vwdw1knu Vwdw1lnu Vwdw1mnu).

System: Mac, OS 10.7.4; PSPP 0.6.2 built with MacPorts
