I've searched the help archives of both lists and apologize if I missed the answer to my question:

Is there an update on developing mcmcsamp for glmer?

I'm using R v. 2.7.2 (on our Unix server - will hopefully be updated soon) and 2.8.1 on my PC and get the message for both:

gm1 <- glmer(cbind(incidence, size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),family = binomial, data = cbpp)
temp<-mcmcsamp(gm1, 1000)
Error in .local(object, n, verbose, ...) : Update not yet written

Here is the session info if that's helpful:
