I have hunted though the docs and I'm not finding anything on setting a proxy in the package install command.  Any help would be really appreciated.

If you're on Windows:

Start R with the --internet2 option, or run setInternet2() from within 
your R session.  Then R will use whatever proxy you have configured into 
Internet Explorer.
