Erin,

You can build packages without compiling from source (what made you
think you couldn't?).  Did you make sure when you installed the Rtools
(I am assuming you are using those rather than going out and getting
everything you need on your own) that you included everything for 64
bit builds?  When switching between 32 & 64, I typically only switch
between WIN = 32 and WIN = 64.
