This is fixed now in R-devel.
Meanwhile a similar issue was found with \kbd in a \value{} preamble,
but only in Perl 5.10.x (and the same fix resolves that).

The obvious to me

Look in MkRules and the rw-FAQ. You can easily build R under Mingw64,
but no one has reported making it run -- and several have reported
failures.
Commercail vendors have built 64-bit R under other Windwos compilers.

But if you want to choose your own options, ask your local Solaris

Have you seen developer.r-project.org? All the relevant
information is there. For the medium-term (up to 6 months) the NEWS
file in the R-devel version of R indicates currently intended changes.
CRAN is a distribution network, and distinct from www.r-project.org
and developer.r-project.org.
Where did FFLAGS come from here (looks like you meant FPICFLAGS)?
But that will only postpone the problem: to build R as a shared
library you need PIC libraries, and your Fortran library is apparently
not PIC (gcc does not generate PIC code by default on x86_64, and g95
