Can I build a version of R for Windows without some functionality like ftp

like this can be done from the Windows install file, but if it can that
would nice to know too.
Installing the recommended packages is a documented step you can omit.
Not building the Internet support means modifying Makefiles, but it
would seem as easy to remove the internet[2].dll if you want to hobble
the feature.
OTOH, in 15 years no one has ever asked to build R without internet
support, on any platform.
