I am trying to build a windows 32 bit version of R 2.11.0 from source on a 
machine running
windows 7 - 64 bit while running as the machine's administrator.
I am able to run "make all recommended"...However, once I attempt to build the 
bitmap files I get the following:

C:\Rsource\R-2.11.0\src\gnuwin32>make bitmapdll
make -C bitmap
make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/Rsource/R-2.11.0/src/gnuwin32/bitmap'

 -f scripts/makefile.mingw prefix=foo libpng.a
gcc -std=gnu99 -c -O3 -I../../../extra/zlib -DPNG_NO_MMX_CODE -o png.o png.c
Assembler messages:
Fatal error: can't create png.o: Permission denied
make[3]: *** [png.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/Rsource/R-2.11.0/src/gnuwin32/bitmap'
make: *** [bitmapdll] Error 2

Any suggestions/hints on what I am messing up are most appreciated.

The permissions on bitmap/libpng.

There have been reports of this when Rtools is used on Windows 7, so try fixing the permissions under bitmap manually or unpacking those components directly from the tarball sources.

Such questions are best asked on R-devel: see the posting guide.


Thanks in advance.
