[Rd] windows 64-bit package build on 32-bit machine

[Michael Spiegel]

Hmm.  So our package does not have no src/Makefile.win and only an
empty configure.win.  We usually build a binary version with R CMD
INSTALL --build.

R --arch x64 CMD INSTALL --build yields the message "The system cannot
find the path specified."
