Description
When I execute the given estimation, TOL gives this message:
gsl: svd.c:227: ERROR: svd of MxN matrix, M<N, is not implemented
Default GSL error handler invoked.
And then Seg faults.

The problem is that there are more variables than data.
Eventhough it is statistically wrong, that is actually possible, but must be avoided
because the estimation computes the singular value decomposition using the GSL
modified Golub-Reinsch algorithm. This algorithm is very optimized for N>M, (that
is, many more data fields than variables), and has not even been implemented for
N<M.
A fix for this is on the CVS: Prints an error and aborts the estimation.
