Like Jeff I believe this belongs on R-devel and any followups should go there. Appears you have not yet read the Posting Guide (since you continue to post in HTML and it does have a description of suitable topics for R-devel that to my reading appears to include this question.)

The devel version of the Installation and Administration Manual has a section regarding CXX flags :
