[R] problem with "make distribution"

Dear R People:

I'm trying to experiment with the "make distribution"  with R-2.12.0
when compiling from source on Windows.  It works fine on Windows XP,
but I'm having a snag with Windows 7.

Here is the snag:

cp -prf "../../../Tcl" R-2.12.0
cp: preserving permissions for `R-2.12.0/Tcl/bin': Invalid argument
cp: preserving permissions for `R-2.12.0/Tcl/doc': Invalid argument

and so on.

Has anyone run into this, please?

Thanks for any help.

Sincerely,
Erin
