Tewarit Somkotra (via forwarded email from Marcello Pagano) is having trouble
with the -svy- prefix in Stata 9:

It appears that Tewarit's Stata 9 executable is out of sync with the
ado-files.  Tewarit should run the following command in Stata:

	. update query

Tewarit can write directly to Tech Support <[email protected]> if the
above does not solve the problem.
