Attempting to use the oaxaca command (*not* decomp), I get an error message which appears to be due to a problem with the command's use of svymean. I note elsewhere on this list that use of "if" terms with svymean can lead to errors, but I don't see what alternative I have with the oaxaca command.

Relevant bits of the log follow:

.
. reg driver/*
> */ revenue profit haul ltl spec ltlspec union unltl unspec /*
> */ if regulate==0

Source | SS df MS Number of obs = 770
-------------+------------------------------ F( 9, 760) = 38.09

[...]

. est store regulated
.
. reg driver/*
> */ revenue profit haul ltl spec ltlspec union unltl unspec /*

Source | SS df MS Number of obs = 898
-------------+------------------------------ F( 9, 888) = 24.80
[...]

. est store deregulated

. oaxaca regulated deregulated
(note: using svymean to compute vce of means of regressors)
subpop() does not contain a valid varname
r(198);

end of do-file
r(198);
