Neal Richardson commented on ARROW-13870:
-----------------------------------------

It's the 32-bit version using rtools35 (gcc 4.9); the newer toolchain is fine I 
think. I think the issue is that we don't know why it's not working and we 
haven't been able in the past to find out why. And at this point I don't know 
how much effort it is worth spending trying to solve it, given that this 
toolchain is no longer required on CRAN.

> [R] Should we proactively disable multithreading on 32bit windows?

> We have numerous test skips for 32bit windows + multithreading. Should we add 
> something to {{onLoad}} that detects this and proactively sets arrow to 
> single-threaded (using {{set_cpu_count()}} and / or 
> {{options(arrow.use_threads)}}?). 
> Should we display a message that we did this and if someone wants to live 
> experimentally they can increase that again?
