Following Steve Samuels' suggestion, I tried -nlpredict- after running -streg-, but I get an error because the estimates of ancillary parameters (kappa and sigma) are involved. Apparently you still have to write out the "complicated" function, whether you use -nlcom- or -nlpredict- (see Steve's second posting on this). 
Too good to be true.
