st: bootstrap means of several variables in one command

bootstrap mean1=r(mean):sum var1, meanonly works fine
but I don't see a way to do this for 2 or more variables, since
r(mean) after running
sum var1 var2
has only the mean for var2.
mean var1 var2
produces a matrix e(b) with the two means
but I can't get bootstrap to accept this ("matrices not allowed").
I'm sure there's a simple way to do this.
Thanks for your consideration.
