First, it is not surprising that

does not work. It is illegal: what is that "hidden" doing there?
That said, there is something bizarre going on here.
The Stata 12 Programming Manual does have a section on "Using hidden
and historical saved results." As far as I can tell, the above syntax
isn't legal. But I believe this would be, in case it is what was
really intended:
ereturn hidden scalar ui = sqrt(r(Var))
