Well, it probably means you don't have x64 binaries in your R - that has nothing to do with cross-compilation. You should make sure that you have both i386 and x64 archs in your R to start with. Also I would not expect R --arch x64 to work regardless since you can't run 64-bit binary of R on 32-bit Windows. The same applies on OS X - you can cross compile for ppc64 (i.e. install multi-arch if the package has no Makefile/configure) but you can't run ppc64 R on Intel Macs (and hence you cannot install packages with configure/Makefile).
