Lets say it is an F-test, where one of the "q" restrictions is the
coefficient of the lag of the dependent variable. In my example, I
showed the case where q=1. H0: c = 0 .

More general for an F-statistic, since you have the lag of the
dependent variable, there is endogeneity (you can use lags of the
indep variables as instruments). Therefore, you can think of a Wald
test where:
a) you use OLS for the restricted model.
b) you should use IV for the unrestricted model.

Alternatively, I could check which of the two models minimize akaike.
How inappropriate is that?
