Yes. Cross-compiling can work, but some of the version of gcc are more finicky than other. Eg Jeroen used the different mingw cross-compiler version on Ubuntu to build a Windows library of Protocol Buffers which he then made available to CRAN / win-builder. So now we have Windows builds of RProtoBuf too. But he had to try three different ones. As I recall the 4.7.* variant worked, the others lead to errors once used on Windows. But you'd have to ask him. We are a little off-topic now as far as 'how do I use Rcpp' goes. | Thanks for all your help! My pleasure.
