Jeph Herrin <[email protected]> reports that -estat phtest- does not
work after -stcox- with -shared-:

-stcox- does not set the required macros when -shared- is used that -estat
phtest- needs.  This will be fixed in the next update.  In the mean time, Jeph
can call -myestat_cmd-, given below, which sets the required macros before
-estat phtest-:

	capture program drop myestat_cmd
	program myestat_cmd, eclass
		global S_E_cmd2 "stcox"
		eret local estat_cmd stcox_estat
	end

	sysuse cancer, clear
	stset studytime, f(died)
	stcox age, shared(drug) schoenfeld(var1)
	myestat_cmd
	estat phtest
