st: egen with error after set obs erases obs

I noticed these commands
. set obs 70
obs was 0, now 70
. egen cell = seq() from(1) to(5) block(14)
varlist not allowed
r(101);
result in 0 observations on my Stata 11 copy for the Mac. After the egen error, I should still have 70 observations. After doing this I have to set obs 70 again before proceeding.
