Problem Note 4841: PROC CALIS produces incorrect results if an INWGT= data set is specified
when METHOD=GLS
If you run PROC CALIS using METHOD=GLS and specify an INWGT= data set,
the results will be incorrect. The results are not noticeably incorrect
and there is no circumvention for this problem.
Note that the results are correct with METHOD=GLS if you do NOT specify
an INWGT= data set. The results are also correct if you specify an
INWGT= data set that is exactly equal to the default weight matrix (the
sample covariance or correlation matrix).
