Good evening. Will the mle command in gretl have any compatibility problem if in the likelihood some of the parameters under estimation appear also inside binary min and max operators

Namely, a thing like (bogus likelihood),

<hansl>

scalar a = starting value

scalar b  = starting value

scalar s = starting value

mle  logl = log(a) + log(Φ(ε / s + min(a-b,0))) + exp(-max(a,b))

...

</hansl>

I am not asking about convergence issues or negative logarithms, these are model/data issues. Only if the mle command accepts in principle to work with the binary min/max operators.
