A more sensible option in my experience would be to transform the 
parameter space to send the boundaries to +/-Inf.  Suggested reading for 
'nlme' includes Pinheiro and Bates (2000) Mixed-Effects Models in S and 
S-Plus (Springer) and Bates and Watts (1988) Nonlinear Regression 
Analysis and Its Applications (Wiley).
