That has been done before---see David Dahl's salso package (here mirrored at GH for easy viewing): https://github.com/cran/salso and specifically to the pivot on Windows to pull in a prebuilt library: https://github.com/cran/salso/blob/master/src/Makevars.win Longer term "we all" have to come up with a better solution but for now this approach appears to be tolerated (and I do something similar with downloads at CRAN-build-time in at least two packages).
