The saturated model is not identified for this model specifiation/data.  David
can cut down on the number of iterations that -sem- spends trying to fit the
saturated model by adding option

	satopts(iter(10))

With the above mentioned update to -sem-, this option will allow -sem- to
quickly continue with the model fit even if the saturated model fails to
converge.
