The work around is to start your new project then choose "Save as"
from the File menu.

That said, this is a bug.  I'll put it on the to do list.  Thanks.

16 is the compiled-in limit in Ifeffit:
 
  Ifeffit> show &max_data_sets
   &max_data_sets =      16.000000000

It is certainly possible to change that limit and recompile Ifeffit.
I am disinclined to maintain more than one version of the Windows
packages.  But making this change happen on linux is not hard.  I'd be
happy to make a follow-up post walking you through it.

Making this change happen on your own on Windows is not trivial, but
certainly doable.
