[Rd] Bug(?) in Makefile.win

I'm working on a package that will need a separate makefile for
Windows.  However, I'm finding that when I rename the Makefile to
Makefile.win, it stops working.  (I suspect at least 3 differences so
far:  the code to convert .a libraries to a .dll doesn't work, and
some macros like $(CP) and $(RANLIB) don't exist.)

I'd like to submit a bug report, but I want to be sure this isn't "as
designed" first.  

1.  Should Makefile.win and Makefile perform identically on Windows?

2.  Where do I go to find where Makefile.win gets invoked, to see if I
can spot why there'd be a difference?
