This is a very specific model, so I it may well be that you are the
first to try that with -gllamm-.

That reminds me of the work done by Partha Deb who parameterized the
probability of class membership in a finite mixture model. He wrote his
own Stata program though and did not use -gllamm-, but the slides from
his presentation at the Summer North American Stata Users' Meeting may
give you some ideas:

I have never estimated such a model in -gllamm-, so I am afraid I can't
help with that.
