Probably there is some kind of small difference in the file format or some small bug in the PSPP reader. If you can provide the .sav file (I will not share it) then I'm happy to find and fix the bug. That's ideal, but alternatively if you can run pspp-dump-sav and show as much of the output as you can, then that might be helpful enough to find the problem too.
