The problem is that the residual you care about is the difference
between the predicted and the latent (i.e. unobserved) variable. To
make things worse the latent variable is identified by the assumption
of homoskedasticity (or alternatively functional form for the
heteroskedasticity in -oglm-, see -ssc d oglm- and
<http://www.nd.edu/~rwilliam/oglm/>). So there is no way to
empirically check that assumption.

Hope this helps,
Maarten
