Correct. The shell / Makefile quoting gets in the way.
If someone comes with _reliable ways to improve this_ we'd be open for
patches. Until then the recommendation is to not use directories with spaces.

Good idea.

Your PKG_LIBS appears to be wrong:
g++ -shared -s -static-libgcc -o processes.dll tmp.def rcpp_hello_world.o
rcpp_module.o -LC:/PROGRA~1/R/R-213~1.1/bin/i386 -lR
You need a -L part for a location, as well as -l part giving a library, eg
g++ -shared -s -static-libgcc -o processes.dll tmp.def rcpp_hello_world.o
rcpp_module.o -LC:/PROGRA~1/R/R-213~1.1/bin/i386 -lRcpp -lR
where I added -lRcpp.
Hope this helps, Dirk
