To join up the dots, what I tried before making my recommendation was
-logit- and surmised that -logistic- would be OK too. That was wrong.
Thanks to Maarten for the clarification.

I can reproduce the problem and it looks like a bug to me. However it
is very easy to work around it till someone from StataCorp either tells
us that it isn't a bug but that we are doing something dumb or that
they will fix it: Use -logit- instead of -logistic-. See the example
below:
*---------------- begin example ---------------
sysuse auto, clear
recode rep78 1/2=3
// Works:
xi: bootstrap _b, eform reps(100) dots: ///
logit foreign i.rep78 price
// Does not work:
xi: bootstrap _b, eform reps(100) dots: ///
logistic foreign i.rep78 price
*------------------ end example ---------------
