I think so! I do use g++, but 'have to' use the MinGW variant as that is what
R uses to build a Windows-native beast.  I tried very basic configure
options, and a plain make. It fails in libtool-driven linking stage not
finding library files.  

Did you use a DOS command prompt window?  I am running in Msys/bash/... to
keep the shell behaviour close to my preferred habitat.

Easiest for me would be if you supplied such a lib via sf.net :)
