As I understand it, -quaids- (SJ 12-3) does not itself always require space for more than 2,048 variables, but evidently your problem does. What does . describe, short show? The number of observations is immaterial here; you can't trade observations for variables if you have Stata/IC and are fighting the limit of 2048 variables. But are _all_ your variables involved in your QUAIDS problem? That sounds difficult to believe. Can you -drop- some of them?
