I don't know anything about the Bioconductor installation, but it is normal practice on Windows to install updates to packages distributed with R (such as those below) by "superceding" them in your user library. This happens automatically if you don't specify the destination library to install to. Just do a normal update.packages and the Program Files library will stay unchanged but your user library versions of the base R packages will be loaded instead.
