-fitstat- does not currently work with -gologit2-.  Add the -v1- 
parameter to -gologit2-, e.g.

xi, prefix(): gologit2 format size1 auditor_d standards_d for_list 
lev2 sales_int3 i.gics4, v1

That should solve both your problems; if not get back to me.  Also, 
for -test- commands, you can refer to equations by their number, e.g.

test [#1=#2]

That tends to be safest because you don't have to worry about how the 
equations are labeled.  In gologit2, the default is to use the value 
labels of y for the equation labels, whereas in -gologit- the default 
is to label them mleq1, mleq2, etc.

Incidentally, there is more info on gologit2 at
