I set the reference voltage to about 650mv and did a DC simulation. The regulated voltage starts up and then dies as the VDD is ramped up. What could be causing this ? Thank you.

Looks like you are only passing the dV/dt from supply to output and only when FETs are weak. Maybe you have something disconnected. You know what really helps circuit discussions? Right.
