I have Intercooled Stata 9.2 fully updated and -estat ic- works well after xtreg, fe:
e.g.
. use http://www.stata-press.com/data/r7/abdata.dta
. xtreg n w k, fe
[omissis]
. estat ic
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Model | Obs ll(null) ll(model) df AIC BIC
-------------+----------------------------------------------------------------
. | 1031 225,2154 660,7365 3 -1315,473 -1300,658
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It does not work after xtreg, re; nor I can find a solution but switching to xtreg, mle.
