Thank you, Andrew. I just saw make updated today, so I should try rebuilding on the failing platform sometime in the future.
As for r-sig-Windows, I would think we should revive it, especially in light of this long thread [1] and the recent updates (comment 47 and on) at [2], but it will require a Tomas-level guru to monitor it as well. Especially since if the stack misalignment feature is actually fixed, it may only be fixed for the upcoming GCC 17 [3], and Rtools45 uses GCC 14 [4].
