with 64 bit R. Thank you,Kurt
Well, if you want to use Gtk2 and glade, you should install Gtk2 in
the first place. I don't know of any 64-bit binary, so you probably
have to do that yourself. This has nothing to do with R ...

PS: Building GTk2 from sources is not quite trivial, but I have some
scripts that may help you:
https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/QA/Simon/R-build/misc/
I have not tested it as 64-bit build, but it should at least give you
the list of dependencies and some idea of the special flags you'll need.
