I am afraid not. It is a fortuitous artifact that -matrix drop _all- solves
the problem.
In the interim before the update, Al can use the Mata function -st_matrix()-
to safely hold matrices in Mata before -matrix drop _all- and restore them to
Stata afterward. If the row and column stripes are important, Al will need to
also use -st_matrixrowstripe()- and -st_matrixcolstripe()- to save and restore
the stripes.
