Indeed it is a possibility. There are also other possibilities: Perhaps PSPP has a bug; perhaps SPSS has a bug; perhaps there is something wrong with the way your copy was installed; perhaps you or your colleague misunderstood the user manual; Perhaps the user manual is misleaading and needs to be revised ...
But without specifics, it is hard to know which of these possibilities (if any)
are in fact what is happening.
If you can provide the exact scenario, it may help to determine what the problem
is and, in the event of a PSPP bug, hopefully to fix it.

Dear John
I did not assume that there was an error in the dataset or syntax, as my
colleague is relying on the PSPP User Manual and the procedure is very simple.
However, I had assumed that other users might have experienced similar issues
and that rather, the problem was with PSPP. Is this not a possibility?
Best wishes

Could you perhaps post the dataset and the syntax you used, which provokes
this problem?

Hello
I would value advice on output which was sent to me from calculating
Cohen's simple Kappa using PSPP. The output demonstrates the following:
a) a discrepancy between the standard errors calculated by PSPP
and SPSS (0.07 versus 0.088, respectively)
and
b) an empty cell under the label 'Approx sig.' in PSPP by
contrast with the occurrence of the value '.000' in the corresponding cell for
SPSS.
Can anyone explain any of these anomalies, please?
Best wishes
