[R] make R package for windows on Linux

[Paulo Justiniano Ribeiro Jr]

Hi

I do it for the geoR package following the excelent and detailed
instructions provided by Yan and Rossini:

"Building Microsoft Windows Versions of R and R packages under Intel
Linux"

available at the Contributed Documentation in the R web-site

Notice that not having C/Fortran/C++ code make the process even simpler.

P.J.
