[R] Problem with RCMD CHECK (or BUILD)

[Ollivier TARAMASCO]

Dear all,

Thank you for your answers. I didn't notice there were new versions of
Rtools and gcc, and I had also problems with the order in my PATH. Now it
works!

It uses the file system to find those scripts, so on case insensitive 
file systems on any platform it will accept CHECK or BUILD.  In practice 
that's Windows and MacOSX, but in theory it could be others.
