(Or even the R manuals.)

Not so easy: see
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.8/check/Ratings-check.log

If the automated builder fails, there is usually a good reason.  In this 
case editing Ratings/src/Makevars to have PKG_CPPFLAGS rather than 
PKG_CXXFLAGS might do it (maintainer Cc:ed here).
