Rodrigo's suggestion could work, but you should use the -cue- rather
than the -liml- option.  -ivreg2- doesn't use -ml- for estimating LIML
(the usual way LIML coefficients are found is from the solution to an
eigenvalue problem, and that's what -ivreg2- does).  CUE
(continuously-updated GMM) is a generalization of LIML, and does call
-ml-, so you can pass constraints in the way Rodrigo suggests.

Cheers,
Mark
