st: Calculating margins after biprobit

I am investigating the effect of a binary variable X on a binary variable Y, where X is potentially endogenous. I estimated a biprobit:
biprobit (Y = X ) (X = Z).
However, when I use the following margins command
margins, dydx(X) over(X)
I get the error message:
"default prediction is a function of possibly stochastic quantities other than e(b)"
I also tried mfx but it does not seem to produce a marginal effect for X.
I would much appreciate if anyone can tell me how to obtain the marginal effect of X on Y.
Thanks for your help.
Simon
