Thank you for the report.  I was able to reproduce this, so I
filed a bug.  You can view it at:
        https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?29659

I think that this is the same bug as reported in
        http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?29604

We have had several similar reports lately, so this must be
causing trouble for a number of people.  I will try to get time
to work on it.

If you enter a FILTER BY command as syntax, PSPP will do that
too.  I think that we just need the Select Cases dialog box to
generate slightly different syntax.

Yes, I do plan to change that, when I have time.

I think that is a good idea, too.
