The usual reason for the 'subscript out of bounds' error is that an array's
subscripts exceed the dimensions of the array. In this case
gee.fit$working.correlation is a 1 by 1 matrix, so subscripting with [1,2]
will cause the error.
Here is a self-contained example that you can send the package's maintainer.

Ijt=c("i","ii","iii"))[c(1:9,1:9),])
> options(error=recover)
> test <- GEE.var.fg(y ~ factor(period) +
factor(Ijt),id="id",family=gaussian, dx,corstr="exchangeable")
