Looks like -rcpoisson- does not estimate the model you want. It is
related, but not related enough. You could try to program such a model
yourself, or you can see if you can "trick" a program like -streg- to
fit the model you want. This is not a complete answer, I am just
telling you where I would start looking for an answer based on my
intuition.
