The issue is that your version of Windows is not properly changing to a
C locale. The solution is to start the build in an 8-bit (preferably C)
locale.
This is documented in R-patched at least: see the posting guide (which
asked you to try R-patched before posting) and
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Building-from-source
BTW: your email is not encoded correctly, so it may be that you have
more pervasive locale breakages on your system.
