Yes ... apparently the R being used to build the Windows packages was
never completely switched to 1.7.1 but rather the R-1.7.0(Patched) from

That shouldn't have anything to do with the fact that the package was
built under 1.7.0, but rather most likely involves tightre checking in
1.7.1.  Perhaps one of the marray* folks know something about this?
