The GPL gives you permission to modify R and redistribute, as long as
you leave the GPL license intact and make the source code of what you
distribute available. (But I'm neither a lawyer nor the copyright
holder for all of R, so don't trust me, read the license).

The iss file for R is produced by the JRins.pl Perl script in
src/gnuwin32/installer, after the Makefile in the same directory has
copied an image of R to a temporary directory. If you just want the
script, you can run
make R.iss
in that directory (assuming you've already made all the constituent
parts). I'd recommend not editing this file, however: you're better
off trying to make all your changes to src/gnuwin32/MkRules or one of
the Makefiles if you don't want to go through all the work again as
soon as you've incorporated the next R patch.
