Follow-up Comment #1:

> After reading in a .sav file and trying to create a .por version, the
program hangs while the driver creates a file of ever increasing size.

Thanks for the report.  This bug was fixed already in the latest version of
PSPP.  (I verified this by reading your .sav and then writing a .por with the
latest version.)  You may want to upgrade.

The commit that fixed it was:
