Damon,

I have a version of a program that does a Sargan test of overidentifying 
restrictions after estimation by EC2SLS or G2SLS.  I got it working but 
there were some minor issues relating to small-sample corrections that got 
in the way and stopped me from making it generally available.  It's 
probably good enough for your purposes, though.  If you contact me off-
list, I can send it to you and we can see if it does what you want.

Cheers,
Mark
