I can confirm the behaviour that you report.?

Usually I put Rtools in c:\programs\Rtools and modify the path
accordingly. Recently (don't recall for how long) I have encountered
the same problems as you have and I have resorted to moving Rtools to
c:\Rtools

I have no idea as how to proceed; perhaps it could be worth trying an
older version of Rtools (though that may cause other problems).

Regards
S?ren
