[Rd] Incorrect @INC: Rcmd SHLIB error under Windows (2.6.2, 44383) (PR#11161)

[Mathieu Ribatet]

Has your environment variable path been set correctly?

It's been a while that I'm not using R under windows but remember had 
experienced the same error. I remember that I had to put many paths as 
environment variable to build R packages properly.

Best,
Mathieu
