There are lots of problems with MCMCpack's C++: the only way (short of a major rewrite) that you will get it to compile on Solaris is to use g++ (and even that needs corrections).

The maintainers seem deaf to reports of the issues.

And please note what the posting guide says about where to send questions about non-R programming issues.

Sorry, I omitted 'in contributed packages'. And PLEASE don't post twice.

The patch I needed on x86 Solaris was
