[R] checking package dependencies

[Richard M. Heiberger]

I am having a similar problem with Windows.  I first tried R-2.3.0,
then following this post, tried R-2.2.1.  In both versions,
I can't get anything useful with the cygwin shell inside emacs.
I get valid error messages from cygwin in a standalone cygwin window
and from the msdos shell, either standalone or inside emacs.  Here is
the messages from the cygwin shell.
The ls -alF for all the files mentioned look good.  I don't know where
the "access is denied" message is coming from.
Perhaps someone can help interpret them.
