Mustafa Hussien <[email protected]> discovered that -qreg- does support
aweights as of the September 19, 2013 update.
We removed support for -aweights- because the interpretation of the
estimates does not fit with the definition of -aweights- as accounting for
cell-mean data.
Mustafa can use iweights to obtain analogous behavior; iweights are
importance weights whose meaning is user defined.
Specifically, Mustafa could specify as iweights the original weights divided
by their mean.

Rich
