It compiles from the MacGUI console using an ordinary call (no extra environment variables need be set) to install.packages, and then loads without error on my Mac running R 3.3.1 patched. (I do have a full set of tools and a current version of Rcpp, reference to which which showed up in the compiler messages.) If I had been using the Unix command line I would have offer a full path to the *.tar.gz file and not used that "minus one" option.
