Why are you reporting a POSIX standard feature missing in your OS as a bug in R? (One that is even documented on the help page.)

On more comprehensive OSes you can use the %V format of strftime. You could compile a replacement for Windows' strftime and link it into your build of R, as we have done for so many other Windows lacunae.
Then in your example use as.integer(strftime(tmp.d, "%V"))

Unfortunately we use Windows and R has problems with getting the calendar

That is simply false: R is not responsible for the lack of standards compliance of Windows, and filing a bug report with Microsoft would be much more appropriate.
