Hmm. The intent (and I think the actuality) is that that warning is
printed only when the user has selected the "unrestricted constant"
case. But since that case is statistically weird we drop back to the
"closest" less-weird case, namely the restricted trend (as does
CATS, I believe). The assumption is that the "exo I(1)" variables in
question are something other than constant or trend.
So do you (and the printed warning message) mean that the critical
values refer to the case of: a restricted trend, plus an unrestricted
constant, plus an exogenous and restricted I(1) variable?
(Where the specification did not include the restricted trend.)
