No, although the references in my copy do mention Raftery ....
As I understand it, mclust in S+6.0 is older than mclust which was
distributed on that site, and is different from MCLUST. As the site says
NOTE: the function 'mhtree' for hierarchical clustering in MCLUST
supercedes the function 'mclust' in commercial S-PLUS
There is a pre-compiled version of MCLUST for S+6.x for Windows at
