What versions of rstan and rstantools are you using? On what OS?

[barracuda156]

@mcol Thank you very much for responding. My testing setup is this:

R-rstan @2.21.8_0
R-rstantools @2.2.0_0
R @4.2.2_4+builtin_lapack+cairo+gcc12+openmp+recommended+tcltk+x11
macOS 10.6.8 Rosetta
GCC 12.2.0

P. S. I am bringing R packages into Macports, so this is not just my personal issue, I need to make sure it works before submitting a port.

@mcol Apparently the failure was caused by the malloc bug (unrelated to your port) that has been fixed since then; now all looks good:

I close the issue now.
