From the code it looks as if use of modeltab within a function was
meant to work. I'm not sure it ever really worked -- if so, it has
been subject to bitrot. Anyway, that should now be fixed in git.

One definite result of bitrot: whether in a function or not, adding
more than one model to the table worked correctly only if (a) the
model had been given a name, as in "mname <- ols <whatever>", or (b)
the --quiet option was NOT applied to the estimation command. In other
words with no name and --quiet only one model could be put into the
table. That's now fixed in git too. (Technote: the bug here was a
result of a policy change whereby models estimated with --quiet are
not given sequential ID numbers, and gretl got the idea that you were
trying to add the same model twice.)
