I understand that simple non-negative constraints can be imposed in other indirect ways, but I have to impose bounds on the estimated parameters like "0<alpha<1".
This comment is not directly about your syntax question, but interval constraints like this can also be imposed indirectly. A typical way of doing that is to map the parameter to the unit interval by using a CDF like the standard normal or so. Of course, the bounds of the interval can be adjusted as well. Sorry if this is beside the point, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to mention it.

So can I somehow combine the naked mle "check" syntax with the KF-success syntax into one, say

Again, not directly about your question, but it is allowed to call user-defined functions in an mle block. So you can define your own function that takes the relevant series and parameters, and spits out either a scalar result or perhaps also another series which may also contain missings. This approach is much more flexible than using a single conditional statement, so I guess it could help solve your problem.

cheers
