Quite. A price of writing this for -version 9- is that it doesn't understand factor variables, at least the lazy way I wrote it. It could be made smart enough to understand factor variables if it were called under Stata 11 (up) but, sorry, that is not on my immediate agenda. In this particular case regress mpg foreign price is the same regression and avoids the problem, but categorical variables with three or more categories would need the indicators to be generated in advance.
