Are you builing a 32 or 64 bit app? I haven't looked but offhand that may be
what this flag is for ( you can man g++ and check I suppose ) 

I was going to reply after doing some checking as I have never actually made
a complete R package but I did make a test one and verified I could call
the c++ code from R. I seem to remember that it was easy to just invoke g++
explicitly and R would use whatever binaries you happen to have left there.
That is, if you just compile the code for your R modules yourself there
is no real reason to worry about how R does it. Mixing some flags will
prevent linking or, worse, create mysterious run time errors.

Also, IIRC, your parameters were the output of foreign scripts ( opencv 
apparently)
and not too helpful here ( and in any case you should echo these to see what 
they
are if they are an issue).
