Holy cow, that's a lot of alternatives. I am with Maarten on this,
unless you have a truly huge (and amazingly well-conditioned)

I agree. Having said that, I wonder if mprobit would work? I don't
see a documented limit on the # of categories. Of course, you might
have to wait a few months for it to finish running.
