I'm not so sure about that.  Much of what I know about programming I 
learned from Stata's Maximum Likelihood book; see

http://www.stata.com/bookstore/mle.html

The sample programs are linked to there.  In their programs (e.g. 
mylogit.ado) there is a version statement in the main/first routine 
but not the subroutines.  This makes me think that either (a) Nick is 
right - it was the quirky ordering of routines in the earlier version 
of outreg that caused the problem, or (b) Stata should revise that 
book/programs in the future so it gives the right advice on the 
version command!
