I've written to Kit Baum about the problem.

As Kit is about to have to spend time tracking down the problem on his  
end,...



No big deal to find and fix -- just a missed update step with respect  
to xtabond2, texdoc and a couple of other packages. Thankfully Bill  
Gould provided me with a program (Stata command) that looks for any  
such discrepancies some time ago, and I have rerun it to locate the  
glitches.


I also rebuilt the HTML help files today, available at http://repec.org/bocode/?/ 
????.html  (for instance, /s/somersd.html or /x/xtabond2.html).
Dan Blanchette suggested that I should add those HTML files to the SSC  
Archive pages on IDEAS and EconPapers so that people wouldn't have to  
remember the URLs; someday I will do that. It takes a bit of  
programming to add that info to the RePEc templates.
