Well, at least that narrows it down.  I no longer have a version of  
Stata 9 on my machine, so I can't look at this issue further.  Perhaps  
someone with Stata 9 still available (or a better memory of -anova-  
under version 9) might be able to add something.

One workaround would be the following (IIRC, -unab- predated Stata 9):

    unab t: t*
    anova y `t'

though upgrading, if possible, would clearly be preferable.
