That is as it should be. The latest update of the -somersd- package only
updated the -cendif- module, not the -somersd- and -censlope- modules.
The -which- messages on my system for the 3 ado-files are as follows.
**** BEGINNING OF Stata OUTPUT - CUT HERE

*** END OF Stata OUTPUT - CUT HERE
So -somersd- and -censlope- are relatively stable, and -cendif- has been
changed.
I hope this reassures everybody.
Best wishes
