| 
| Does this help?

So WIN32 gets undefined when CXX_STD, invalidating the check I have there.
Can you have a look at the sources and see where WIN32 gets undefined?

|     Hi Dirk,
| 
|      many thanks for the prompt reply.

|     Tomorrow I will simplify the package to locate the origin of the bug (which

|         Matteo,
| 
|         I may have found it. It is not as broken as I feared.  At the end of
|         RcppArmadilloConfig.h we have
| 
|         // R can be built with its own Rlapack library, or use an external
|         // one. Only the latter has zgesdd, a complex-valued SVD using
|         divide-and-conquer
|         #ifdef WIN32
|           // on Windows we do not assume ZGESDD
|           #define ARMA_DONT_USE_CX_GESDD 1
|         #else
|           // on the other OSs we test via LAPACK_LIBS (in configure) which
|           // updates this include file
|           #include <RcppArmadilloLapack.h>
|         #endif
| 
|         so it was supposed to only include the library RcppArmadilloLapack.h if
|         NOT
|         on Windows.  Somehow your configuration has undefined WIN32.
| 
|         We need to figure out why / who / where and correct it, and / or find a
|         better #ifdef here.
