I have noticed that unix and windows equivalent of Sweave and Stangle scripts 
were just added to r-devel so this should not be a problem anymore in the future.

A    src/scripts/Sweave
A    src/scripts/Stangle
A    src/gnuwin32/fixed/bin/Sweave.sh
A    src/gnuwin32/fixed/bin/Stangle.sh

Until this is published here is the content of src/gnuwin32/fixed/bin/Sweave.sh.
I do not how this can be used in windows, but others on this list or R-help list
might help

R_EXE="${R_HOME}/bin/rterm.exe"
echo "library(\"utils\"); Stangle(\"$1\")" | \
  "${R_EXE}" --no-save --no-restore --quiet
