On Windows, to properly use Apache Arrow with R, it would have to be 
added to Rtools (and hence ideally first upstream to MXE). I've been in 
touch with two arrow developers who started working on adding libarrow 
to MXE, but then ran out of time. If there were any volunteers to finish 
this, perhaps its best to check first with the arrow team where they 
got, rather than starting from scratch.
