Description

it looks to me that GLMResults.aic assume hasconst = 1

    def aic(self):
        return -2 * self.llf + 2*(self.df_model+1)

has hasconst = 0 cleanup ever been extended to GLM ?

Research direction

The issue points to GLMResults.aic; start there and trace how df_model and hasconst affect the parameter count. Verify the AIC for GLM fits with and without an intercept, and add or update the relevant GLM test so the corrected behavior is covered.
