Interesting. You aren't using marginsplot, but I guess you have the
whole arsenal of graphics commands at your disposal.
With a little tweaking, this also works with Stata 11.2. You just
substitute agegrp for _m1.
version 11.2

Run that same code under Stata 12, though, and you get an error, i.e.
it doesn't seem to respect the version control. So, this may be a use
at your own risk, i.e. the code isn't guaranteed to work the same way
in the future.
