After setting PATH=/mingw/bin, *without editing MkRules at all*,
this does work (note "BUILD=CROSS"):
make BUILD=CROSS R_EXE=/usr/bin/R PKGDIR=/home/hin-tak/tmp-cvs \
RLIB=/tmp pkg-snpMatrix
Apparently any variables ("BUILD" being one) specified on the make
command line overrides what's in the make file. Thus there is no need
to edit MkRules at all - HEADER can be specified in the same way
if needed (although it doesn't seem needed).
I'd prefer to do it this way - don't want to keep a locally
modified MkRules in my hard disc which differs from as-distributed
or as-installed (under wine).
There is a slight caveate - wine (and so does windows) installs
R under C:\Program Files\R\R-<version> , and cross-build doesn't like
the space in "Program Files". (native build seems to be able to address
that as c://progr~1/...). Instead of taking it off and reinstall,
I opted for sshfs-fuse mounting my ".wine/drive_c/Program Files/R"
elsewhere without a space in the path.
