Not that I recall, though it's possible that was so with previous
versions of the program. You can iis() alone and run -xtreg- with fe.
I just tried it. Certainly true that fixed effects implies that all
within-cluster covariates drop out (unlike random effects) but it can
be run. It corresponds to using deviations from the cluster mean.
