  Thought someone else would answer by now.
  use the arguments method="L-BFGS-B", lower=c(-Inf,-Inf,-Inf,-Inf,0),
    upper=c(Inf,Inf,Inf,Inf,1)
 
 you may need to tweak these slightly (e.g. set the bounds slightly
within the desired [0,1] range or set the lower/upper bounds for
the unbounded parameters to large negative/positive numbers)
if you get errors about NaNs etc.
