[BioC] Problem using make.cdf.env

[Wenqiong Chen]

You would need some additional tools to get it working. One is
"http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/tools.zip". Another one is
"http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/MinGW-2.0.0-3.exe" and this is the
correct compiler we are supposed to use. 
Follow the instruction at  http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/. I got it
working successfully with our custom cdf files. 
In case it is a mistypo, the command in DOS should be Rcmd INSTALL
rae230acdf. This first R should be capitalized.

Hi all,

I'm following the directions at: 
http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/vignette/makecdfenv.pdf
to try to make a CDF for the RAE230A chip, and running into some troubles.  
Running make.cdf.env itself works fine, but when I try to install it with
rcmd INSTALL rae230acdf
from a DOS prompt I get the error:

'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
*** Installation of rae230acdf failed ***

That's a reasonable error, as I do not have a C-compiler available to me.
Do I 
have any work-arounds or other options to get this working, or am I pretty
well 
stuck?
