I think this is a bug, but have I have I done something stupid?


. webuse leukemia, clear
(Leukemia Remission Study)

. stset weeks , fail(relapse )
[output omitted]
. stcox treatment1 i.wbc3cat, nolog

         failure _d:  relapse
   analysis time _t:  weeks

Cox regression -- Breslow method for ties

No. of subjects =           42                     Number of obs   =        42
No. of failures =           30
Time at risk    =          541
                                                   LR chi2(3)      =     33.02
Log likelihood  =   -77.476905                     Prob > chi2     =    0.0000

. estat phtest
too few variables specified
the current estimation results for cox have 4 equations so you must specify 4 new variables, or
you can use the equation() option and specify one variable at a time
r(102);

If I use the preexisting indicators wbc2 and wbc3 (as in the example in the manual) instead of the factor variable, or if I use -xi- then estat phtest works.
