Thanks for your reply.  It looks sorted correctly and explicitly
sorting prior to running make does not change the error.  here is a
bit of output:

As far as I know I should only be using the dlls from Rtools.  It is
the first thing on my path environment variable, and although cygwin
is installed, I do not even have it on my path.  Interestingly, there
are no problems if set MULTI=32 instead of 64 in MkRules.

Thanks again,

Josh
