st: margin and conformability error after constrained mlogit

[Adrian Gonzalez-Gonzalez <gonzalez-gonzale.1@osu.edu>]

Dear Statalisters

I am constraining the coefficients of some explanatory variables to be zero
in a Multinomial model.  After that, when I use margin I get the following
error (program below):
		conformability error
		r(503);

Margin works fine without the constraint option in mlogit. I want to know if
there is any way to overcome this problem with margin.  I know that mfx
works with the constraint option in mlogit, but it takes a lot of time
(days) in my old computer.  I am using the most updated version of Stata 8
and margin.

Thanks a lot

Adrian
