I'm skeptical that CRAN would produce a bug, but it's not unheard of for anti-viruses to not like its compiled code. Are you able to compile locally? That might make it more comfortable -- if you do so, you could also white list those files (since you made them)
Not a perfect workaround, but AV tends not to like OSS stuff for whatever reason...
