As AFAICT that is what our documentation says all along too :)

We currently use 

  ## make sure system.file returns an absolute path
  Rcpp.system.file <- function(...){
      tools:::file_path_as_absolute( base:::system.file( ..., package = "Rcpp" ) )
  }

Does this have an option on Windows to reliably generate 8.3 names, eg

    C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-213~1.1

instead of 

    C:/Programs and Documents/R/R-2.13.1 

which we could use?
