Michael,

It's hard to tell but it looks like you might have scaling/collinearity
problems.  ivregress is omitting the constant and says that the constant
on isc8590 is exactly zero.  ivreg2 uses (I think) different Mata
routines for matrix inversion and may be why it is arriving at different
answers, but I don't know how reliable either of these are.

I suggest you try the following:

(a) Estimate using the undocumented but still working official ivreg,
which is pretty good at dealing with these things.

(b) Do what ivregress says and drop the constant, and see if ivregress
and ivreg2 (and ivreg) agree.
