I would recommend using Uwe's win-builder site, http://win-builder.r-project.org, to build a Windows binary version of a package. If you don't know what the win-builder site is, please do check it out and avoid the need to install and work with the mingw32 package.
Thanks, duh! I should have remembered that, since I do use Uwe's FTP site to make sure packages build well in Windows! -- guess I always only look for the "Result: OK" line.
I find that the less contact I have with the Windows operating system, the lower my blood pressure stays.
Likewise here...
