R devel - Jun 2007 - PATCH: install inst/ before doing lazyload on Windows

Hi,

On Windows, package files in the inst/ subdir are installed after the
lazyload creation.  This differs from Linux where inst/ is installed
_before_ lazyload creation.

Since packages may need data in inst, I think the order on Windows
should be changed.  Perhaps like this:

diff --git a/src/gnuwin32/MakePkg b/src/gnuwin32/MakePkg

This has been fixed in R devel and patched.

Thanks!
