<https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/MixAll_1.5.4_20240108_094228/Windows/00install.out>:

RTools uses Cygwin features to emulate the presence of certain virtual
paths; /x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix/bin/g++ actually exists and is
transparently mapped to
d:/rtools43/x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix/bin/g++.exe:

User using WINMACHINE MSYS ~
$ /x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix/bin/g++ --version
g++.exe (GCC) 12.2.0

The "Bad address" here means that /bin/sh got an EFAULT while trying to
launch g++.exe:

Unless there is something extremely weird in the command line arguments
returned by Rscript -e "rtkore:::CxxFlags()" that causes the process to
fail to launch (in my opinion, very unlikely, but can you print them
from your compilation process just in case?), I would be looking for
problems elsewhere.

In particular, the problem cannot be in having rtkore installed that is
one version too old, because you only changed Makevars in that version,
and your package MixAll doesn't use the Makevars from a different
source package.
