Ah, but I just updated and it seems to work OK with R 3.1.2:
Random effects:
Groups Name Variance Std.Dev.
groups (Intercept) 0.03334 0.1826
Number of obs: 891, groups: groups, 140
Fixed effects:
Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|)
(Intercept) 0.721329 0.326635 2.208 0.0272 *
EMP 0.001841 0.004444 0.414 0.6787
WAGE -0.052298 0.013335 -3.922 8.79e-05 ***
