It looks correct to me.
Alternatively, you can calculate the generalised residual manually by using a conditional function:
gen GeneralisedResidual = cond(y==1, normalden(xb)/normal(xb1), -normalden(xb)/(1-normal(xb)))
where the first function after 'y==1' is evaluated if y=1 and the second is evaluated if y=0.
