A bug in SampleThetaVector (Metropolis vector sampling) prevented variables sampled out of their prior range to be correctly updated. The sampler then got stuck forever. This affects about all versions up to 5.6.5 included, but the problem was easily seen (that is, if you fell on the bug you must have noticed and it cannot have affected reasonable 
results you obtained.
The bug is now fixed (as of July 14 2016) in the most recent code of Savannah and the fix will be included in the next version.
